Little time back we had written on how to hack BSNL Dataone accounts (the National Internet Backbone) and how to save your own account. Today we will like to discuss about a little exploit which is quite common on the sites using SQL. The trick is called SQL Injection.
What is SQL Injection ?
SQL injection is an attack in which malicious code is inserted into strings that are later passed to an instance of SQL Server for parsing and execution.
In other words:
“SQL Injection” is subset of the an unverified/unsanitized user input vulnerability (“buffer overflows” are a different subset), and the idea is to convince the application to run SQL code that was not intended.
Why SQL injection works ?
The reason SQL injection works is that whereas most systems separate code and data, SQL combines them together. All a hacker needs to do is include some of his own code with the data he sends to a website, then he can gain control of the website.
How to use it ?
Though there are many useful resources on the net, on of the simplest one is given below in the video.
Need to know more about it ?

How to exploit the SQL Injection Attack
The purpose of the post is not to encourage hacking, but to get yourself equipped with knowledge to prevent your own site from such attacks. So beware of SQL INJECTION!

15 must-have Firefox tricks
Stumbled Upon some great tricks for firefox which would make your browsing experience much faster and secure. One of the best tricks was enabling the pipelining feature in Firefox.
Speed up Firefox with pipelining
Here’s a simple way to speed up Web browsing with Firefox — turn on its hidden pipelining feature. When you turn on pipelining, you send several requests to a Web server at a time, rather than sending them one by one, so you can load multiple items on a page concurrently. By default, pipelining is turned off in Firefox, but it’s easy to turn it on:
- Type about:config into your address bar and hit Enter.
- In the Filter text box, at the top of the page, type network.http. A list of settings appears, as you can see in the nearby figure.
- Double-click the “network.http.pipelining” setting, to change it to true.
- Double-click the “network.http.proxy.pipelining” setting, to change it to true.
- Double-click the “network.http.pipelining.maxrequests” setting, and in the text box that appears, type in 8 and click OK.
Note that not all Web servers can handle pipelining. If for some reason, you find that your performance suffers with it turned on, reverse the above steps to turn it off.
Using the about:config screen to turn on pipelining and speed up in Firefox. (Click image to see larger view)

Turn off Laptop's LCD screen - [How to]
In desktops the monitor can be easily tuned off by the button provided for it. However, it can be a complicated task to turn off the laptop’s screen while leaving the processes carry on.
Here is the solution:
Using Power Management Option
One can easily set the option to switch off the screen after the specified time under the “Power Management Option” found under the screen savers tab (Right click on desktop » Properties/Display settings » Screen Savers).
This option is good, but sometimes irritating as monitor keeps turning
off after the specified time.
FN + F6 / FN + F11
Some new laptops have the option of turning off the screen using the “FN” key along with some other key. However, this is limited to certain laptops only.
Using ATI tray icon
The ATI tray icon also has an option to turn off the screen. One can assign the shortcuts and use it easily.
Using Software
If none of the above do the trick, then use Turn OFF LCD. The software is a freeware and does the trick like magic.
