A bootkit is a type of boot virus that is able to hook and patch Windows kernel , and thus getting unrestricted access to the entire computer hence compromising it . The "Stoned" bootkit, a MBR rootkit was presented by Austrian software developer Peter Kleissner at the Black Hat Technical Security Conference USA 2009 and has been taken quite seriously at the circles at Redmond. It is even able to bypass full volume encryption, because the master boot record (MBR) (where Stoned is stored) is not encrypted and as the master boot record contains the decryption software which encrypts and decrypts the harddrive using a password. This is a potential weak point as MBR if compromised,can be used to pwn your whole system. Forget your antiviruses..No one’s secure!

Last time I wrote about 5 sites for budding hackers and shared websites which I visit regularly for knowledge and queries.This time I m expanding it by sharing 5 more sites which in general are the best place to hangout and devote time if you are a budding hacker. Remember,as I repeat my words, NOBODY can make you a hacker, its your passion that makes you one. But for starters,here are some really good websites to have a look into.

On one hand Microsoft has been releasing and updating its smartphone operating systems, geeks are going the other way by porting windows on their respective iPhone’s and Android based phones. On an earlier note, a Norwegian developer named Erik Kristiansen developed the first “boot camp” (later turned out to be a hoax) but that had the devs going for the inevitable. Google about windows on iPhone and you will get loads of results.
