Steve Jobs got the last laugh everytime Steve Jobs in an interview with All Things D. After  Steve Jobs  anointed  Walter Isaacson  as his authorized biographer in 2009, he took Isaacson to see the Mountain View, California, house in which he had lived as a boy. He pointed out its "clean design" and "awesome little features." He praised the developer, Joseph Eichler, who built more than 11,000 homes in California subdivisions, for making an affordable product on a mass-market scale. And he showed Isaacson the stockade fence built 50 years earlier by his father, Paul Jobs. "He loved doing things right," Jobs said. "He even cared about the look of the parts you couldn't see." Jobs, the brilliant and protean creator whose inventions so utterly transformed the allure of technology, turned those childhood lessons into an all-purpose theory of intelligent design. He gave Isaacson a chance to play by the sam

-: EMail Hacking :- All email communications on the internet are possible by two protocols: 1)  Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP port-25) 2)  Post Office Protocol (POP port-110) E-Mail hacking consists of various techniques as discussed below. 1) EMail Tracing :-  Generally, the path taken by an email while travelling from sender to receiver can be explained by following diagram. The most effective and easiest way to trace an email is to analyze it's email headers. This can be done by just viewing the full header of received email. A typical email header looks something like this: From Barr Thu Jan 3 05:33:26 2008 X-Apparently-To: prasannasherekar@yahoo.co.in via 203.104.16.34; Thu, 03 Jan 2008 05:25:38 +0530 X-YahooFilteredBulk: 189.160.34.89 X-Originating-IP: [189.160.34.89] Return-Path: Authentication-Results: mta113.mail.in.yahoo.com from=destatis.de; domainkeys=neutral (no sig) Received: from 189.160.34.89 (HELO dsl-189-160-34-89.prod-infinitum.com.mx) (18

-: Password Hacking :- Password cracking is the process of recovering secret passwords from data that has been stored in or transmitted by a computer system. A common approach is to repeatedly try guesses for the password. Most passwords can be cracked by using following techniques : 1) Hashing :-  Here we will refer to the one way function (which may be either an encryption function or cryptographic hash) employed as a hash and its output as a hashed password. If a system uses a reversible function to obscure stored passwords, exploiting that weakness can recover even 'well-chosen' passwords. One example is the LM hash that Microsoft Windows uses by default to store user passwords that are less than 15 characters in length. LM hash breaks the password into two 7-character fields which are then hashed separately, allowing each half to be attacked separately. Hash functions like SHA-512, SHA-1, and MD5 are considered impossible to invert when used correctly. 2) Guess
