very handy tips indeed. I thankyou.

here's a tip for yall...
on windows systems 2k/nt/xp i found this nice tip in an israeli security mag with no name:

add ".{0003000D-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}" to any dir name,
example: temp.000.{0003000D-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}

and it will show the file to be "temp.000" thru explorer browsing... and the icon will be of windows media player and it if the person tried to open the file by double clicking it, it will open it with windows media player (with no success)...
the big downside is that all you need to do is right click and "explore" it ... and thru DOS it is easily viewable... but for those lazy admins its a nice perfect little trick...
tip #2: you can take an existing temporary file or something and delete it, then rename your directory to the name and extension of the file and add the special line to it to make it look like its that file...

Nice tips thanks mate...May come in handy (sorry about my eng)

Heres something else also..you can Create a new dir called:

Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}

Now if the sysops opens it in windows he will think it's the CONTROL PANEL
and it will even pop up the CONTROL PANEL if he clicks on it..

Other system folder code-names:
Recycle Bin.{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
Internet Explorer.{FBF23B42-E3F0-101B-8488-00AA003E56F8}
Fonts.{BD84B380-8CA2-1069-AB1D-08000948F534}

etc..theres alot more file/folder types to choose from..
nice tip indeed thanks -GhostCow very cool info.

lol had 4 terabyte on 1 chinese uni once

always works..

back in pub scene they use to do / / n com1 n prn invalid folders etc... but think thats only for nt4

nice to see some new tricks tho, tnx dude

Ghostcow,
When you do this on a PC that you share with others (that don't have admin rights), make sure you add security to the folder under which the "fake" folder resides, as I couldn't add security to the fake folder itself.

That way, other users won't delete your precious folder accidentally.

And of course, don't all you folks use temp.00---be more creative than the example.

Nice tip.

After playing with this a bit more, I noticed that the fake folder (temp.00) appears in the left side of Windows Explorer, and if you double click on it on the LEFT side, it does open and reveal the files inside.

If you double click it when it's on the RIGHT side, it opens media player.

So this isn't as good as it seems originally. Of course, I'm open to the possibility that I goofed somewhere, but it doesn't appear that way, at least yet. Comments?

veryyyy nice, really helpfulll very good job, i just wanted to ask how to rename the folder to a normal folder ?

nice one m8 , i wouldnt ever have known that , and it would help me to hide some executable stuff at server thnx

Create is new dir:

My Computer.{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
My Documents.{ECF03A32-103D-11d2-854D-006008059367}

aha... Just what I needed...

Thanks for the new hiding tricks!!!!


RB

I tried to create a control panel dir. It worked. But now it makes my real Control panel crashing even if it is deleted. What to do? I neither want to reinstall my windows neither reformat my hard disk. Help me plz

thx 4 this nice infos

very nice thx

gonna remind that, nice tip indeed m8

But it's also easy deletable..?

Uc

well when i usually hide a directory i just make a bat file as such.

NET START VGN
CD %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\setup
attrib +S +H service
CD %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\setup
del x.exe

i usually attrib +S +H the folder i need to hide.

Hope this helps someone

same for me attrib +s +h it's well

I use "Hyena" .... and I see all hiden dirs ....

hi hi hi ....

Do: Attrib +s +h +r dirname
And you can make rights on dir with cacls.exe!
try it out!

thanks dude, very helpful

cool i just tried it and it works great!

here you have two more :

ppl have read all the posting on this forum..

the attrib mode isn't usefull...
i use windowscommander www.wincmd.com
i can see every folder that is hidden (it's a option in wincmd you have the klick on it)


could somebody explain this for me:

Final, be nice. You were a noob once too, and I'm sure you missed something simple a couple times here and there.

zero, what it means is to type the info after the name of your directory. For example, it you want a directory called "sys" to hide files in, when you create your directory, name your directory

sys.{0003000D-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}

In other words, type all the info above when you name your directory.

I think Final answered your second question.

but you will still be able to access that dir through dos, flashfxp, etc...

thanks for this new method works great

now i understand..

yeah sorry i'm still using win98 so... i was wondering what you ppl mean..

i have seen it on the xp machiene..

cool thx 4 info

good tips anyway, thx

hence the term: lazy admin!

cyrus

big thx

there really is no reason for a sysadmin to start browsing in dirs like c:\winnt\system32\ras\ unless he finds something suspicous...
what im trying to say is: people, hide files there dont run files from there.
and use rootkits

system volume infomation

folder is my favourite place to start creating folders to hide files.... just hide files there, like your directories ect, dont run anything from there, it will stand out like a soar thumb on a 2 fingered elephant

gonna try this out thanks for the info
