| Network (in)Security Interesting hacks and cracks. Info on firewalls, TCP/IP, encryption, networks, and security. The ins and outs of the phone system, caller services, how things work, what's illegal and what's not, cellular phones, beepers, telephony legislation, the PUC, ISDN, taps, who's listening, and switches. Talking about phones, hacking systems, technical advice, and such is completely LEGAL in the United States -- it's covered by the First Amendment. What's illegal is conspiracy to commit a crime. So if you say something like "Meet me at 2am so we can crack a can" or "I changed my cell phone's number myself" you are criminally liable. Stating "You can crack a can by doing thus-and-so" or "If you wanted to change a cell phone's number, you could do it like so" is perfectly OK. Posting passwords, calling card numbers, or credit card numbers is forbidden on this network. Posting such info will get you booted off the net. |

 Stupid cookie question
Hi, I'm really new to all this hacking/security stuff and need some help. As you know, the cookies that are stored on your HDD are named in a format like userxxx@whateversite.www etc. I usually have these turned off, but I guess the per-session cookies look basically the same. Now, when I connect to a site which uses these (per session) cookies, can they get my username at that computer through the cookies? Especially if using an anonymous proxy with java and activex turned off, https routed over proxy as well, and everything seemingly O.K. (aka anmonymity checker sites not capable of getting my IP)?
Thanx.

Re: Stupid cookie question
Running HTTPS through a proxy is a bad idea... you are just making a longer route to wherever you are connecting to and thus creating more locations at which the connection can be tapped and decrypted.
Proxy's will help in privacy to a degree but they will never provide complete privacy. Many proxy hosts will freely check their logs upon requests relating to attacks and such.
