I still remember those nerdy days, when we used to go to college daily, but it didn't take much time to realize we are wasting time in college. Those are the days we are getting the flavour of Indian engineering students. We are trying hard to figure out the ways to kill time, Soon we found a precious thing that was "Dlink" - free unlimited WI-FI. One of our altruistic neighbour was kind enough to fed us the entertainment. I didn't know who was that guy but he seriously deserve respect. See this "Alpa Santhoshi"(English la emantaro thelidu), He got Free WIFI one time and he lost his mind, You can Imagine about us.
As we have internet (free) we can do what ever we want to. We have started exploring STUFF. I'm leaving to your Imagination, you can replace STUFF with anything. To set the expectation I will Share something.
Over the period of time our interests scattered into various things, Shyam started spending lot of time with games, He used to spent whole night downloading some random game, And spent whole day to figure out how to play it. When it comes to me I was never good at anything, I tried to play some games, But for some reason I didn't like that. So I started figuring out ways to troll my friends.
Here comes one more buddy Sai, This is the only fucker who had girls as friends in my whole friend circle, One day He was sleeping, I was doing some random stuff, he woke up had lunch, and slept. I thought this guy is going to do some crazy stuff to night that is why he is sleeping whole day. He woke up had dinner and slept. (I was like what the fuck happened?). Next day he woke up I don't remember whether he brushed his teeth or not but had breakfast, came back and slept. I started feeling scared (am I staying with a human or a sleeping Satan?). I guess I didn't speak with this guy for two days (I don't know about shyam). had lunch slept, had dinner slept, Next day had break fast (forget about teeth) slept, had lunch slept and had dinner slept( Shit! I would have written a for loop for three days). One habit that can separate him from whole world, I'm proud of my friend.
Hacking - Some how we heard the word "hacking" started figuring out the ways to hack. I read couple of articles about hacking on that night. (I got lot of crazy dreams) Next day out of exaggeration I opened laptop and it didn't take much time to realize my dreams are going to be nice dreams rest of my life. But I was able to learn few ways, according to definition I can call my self as "Script Kiddie:. So by end of 4 days I was ready with some cool software (Keyloggers, pocket sniffer), one fake Orkut page, fake yahoo login page as well as Gmail page and little bit of social engineering skills.
Those days we didn't have facebook account, So Here I was test my hacking skills, I was looking for a smart friend, whom It is tough to make fool. There are lot of people online, But I picked my dear friend Jithu as my target as he was smartest of rest of the people. First rule of social engineering - know what is the interest of other person and don't reveal anything completely keep him in suspense. In first year of engineering for every normal student interest would be hot chicks. So I pinged him told him that I found a link where we have pics of our college "Pulse" and I told there are lot of hot chicks. I pinged him the link of my fake page, told him you will find if you login and I singed off. I know he is going to open that, And I got the password "Enter 2008" so you can imagine what would be his password now may be "Entered 2013" or "Entering 2014" something like this. This was my first attempt and it continued for few months.
He was scared of using my Lappy. We had a friend his name was Chiranjeevi(this is fake name, hiding his name for obvious reasons). One fine day that guy used my laptop where I installed powerful Ardamax Keylogger. I got his orkut password, one of his precious assets to chat with girls. I told him what was his password. And then he stopped using my laptop.
After couple of day I spent some time mastering "Shoulder Surfing". That day Chiranjeevi was using Sai's laptop I was standing behind him. he was entering his password using only index fingers which reminded me baby steps. I was able to capture the string. Password was "Chiranjeevi'sCrushName+HerRollNumber" :P. He didn't know that I know his password, So I started speaking about her with my friends, And capturing his emotions, (this fuckers also started thinking about my sweety). To give him a clue I have started speaking about her roll number. But no luck he was not able to guess that "I knew his password", (In fact he must be things that "This fuckers also kept their passwords same way). To stop him from all these misconceptions, I told him, His own password. He was very frustrated and waiting for a time to take revenge.
Chiranjeevi was desperately waiting for this day. He was standing behind me while I was entering my password, after a while I realized he was peeping into my keyboard. So to avoid his attention I entered backspace twice then three letters and backspace twice and two letters I entered my password and successfully logged in. I expected he will feel disappointed to lose this opportunity, but beyond my expectation my friend was very excited to know how I managed to have backspaces in my password.
My Expectation are always wrong with my friends. They are always above my expectations.
