Newsgroups

[k-otixxx]

Не мога да разбера защо в България и дума не се обелва за тези newsgroups(Usenet и други).Въпреки че повечето са платени има и безплатни.А най-новите релиизи излизат първо там.Проблема може да е само че са платени(е това си е голем проблем де)).Та някой,който знае нещо по въпроса да каже повече.Аз се регистрирах в http://www.yottanews.com там дават 1 гигабайт квота месечно.И свалих един клиент LinkNewsleecher

Та почнах да свалям разни работи.То си е много яко,няма опашчици и там подобни.Ама е доста по-завъртяно от системата с торентите.Гледате какво излиза в http://nforce.nl/ и http://www.nfonews.com/ сваляте от последния сайт файл с разширение .nzb,след това го зареждате в клиента и имате най-новите нещица във формат .r01,r02..r59 i т.н.Нататъка знаете как става

[veseo]

Най-новите рилийзи НЕ излизат първо там. Вярно е, че бързо се появяват на добрите нюзгрупи, но определено не тръгва оттам мрежата на разпространение. А 1 GB квота .. разбираш ли защо никой не говори за нюзгрупите в България

[k-otixxx]

Така,първо излизат на фтп сървъри (платени),след това irc.Та след това са newsgroups и torrents.Поне според мене.Има и ccards за което

Няма платени FTP сървъри. Има хакнати, но не и платени. Сървърите от които тръгва разпространението са си напълно легални и никой не им следи трафика, защото доста често са възлови точки. Няма да повярваш ако ти кажа къде има FTP dump сървър на една група която разпространява всичко от групите кракери/рипъри, към крайния потребител и по-малки FTP сървъри - FTP branches и то около 1 час преди да се появи на nforce и isonewz.

A Guide To Internet Piracy

--------------------------

 

by b-bstf

charmss5@hotmail.com

 

I've written this article after reading a few

letter which show that some readers seem to

know little about piracy on the Internet. I don't

know everything about piracy on the net, but I

would go so far to say that I know a fair bit

about it.

 

First off, piracy isn't just a few guys who

work at cinemas and software stores taking the

odd film or game home and sharing it on their

home FTP servers or KaZaA.

 

Piracy on the Internet, or "the warez scene"

(as those into it like to call it) is suprisingly

organized. Pirated software/games/movies/

anything are called warez and will referred

to as that from now on.

 

The Piracy "Food Chain"

 

Top

 

Warez/Release Groups - People who release

the warez to the warez community. Often

linked with Site Traders.

 

Site Traders - People who trade the releases

from the above groups on fast servers.

 

FXP Boards - Skript Kiddies who

scan/hack/fill vulnerable computers with

warez.

 

IRC Kiddies - Users of IRC (Internet Relay

Chat) who download from "XDCC Bots" or

"Fserves."

 

KaZaA Kiddies - Users of KaZaA and other

p2p (peer to peer) programs.

 

We'll start at the bottom.

 

KaZaA Kiddies

 

At the bottom of the piracy food chain we

have the KaZaA Kiddies. There appear to be

two groups of these KaZaA Kiddies. First, the

13 year old kids with broadband downloading

the odd mp3 here and there because they can't

afford outrageously overpriced CDs from

stores. Harmless kids, costing no one any real

money, pursuing their musical interest. Also,

these are the people being labeled "pirates."

These are the ones "Killing the Music Indus-

try." These are the ones who are being sued by

the RIAA for thousands of dollars. Sigh.

 

Second are the older, p2p veterans who use

other p2p networks (Gnutella, BitTorrent,

EMule) and programs as well as KaZaA. In ad-

dition to using p2p for music the may also

download games, programs, movies, etc.

 

IRC Kiddies

 

Not far up from KaZaA Kiddies we

have the pople who go to IRC for their warez

fix. These folks can be more knowledgeable

about computers and the Internet but tend to be

just as irritating as the KaZaA Kiddies. Warez

Channels are often run by people who have ac-

cess to a fair amount of pirated materieal (more

about them later). There are generally two types

of these Warez Channels:

 

Fserve Chans. These can often be run by

the same KaZaA or IRC kiddies. They don't re-

ally have a reason to run them; they just like to

feel important. They mainly use the mIRC

client's File Server function and some "133t

skript" to share their warez direct from their

hard drives.

 

XDCC Chans. These are usually run by

people into FXP Boards and Sitetrading. They

have access to fast, new warez. They "employ"

people to "hack" into computers with fast In-

ternet connections and install XDCC Clients

(usually iroffer - www.iroffer.org) which are

used to share out pirated goods. From what I've

seen, the people running these channels must

primarily do it because they like to have power

over a lot of people (being a chan op), but also

they will often be given free shell accounts to

run BNCs, Eggdrops, etc. by shell companies

in exchange for an advert in the topic of the

channel.

 

IRC Kiddies can be found on EFnet

(irc.efnet.net) or Rizon (irc.rizon.net). Other

servers and channels can be found through

www.packetnews.org.

 

FXP Boards

 

FXP is the File eXchange Protocol. It isn't

an actual protocol, just a method of transfer

making use of a vulnerability in FTP. It allows

the transfer of files between two FTP servers.

Rather than client to server, the tranfer be-

comes server to server. FXP usually allows

faster transfer speeds altthough it is generally

not enabled on commercial servers as it is also

a vulnerability known as the "FTP Bounce

Attack."

 

The Boards. FXP Boards usually run Vbul-

letion (from software from www.vbulletin.org) and

its members consist of Scanners, Hackers, and

Fillers. There are also usually a few odd mem-

bers such as Graphics People or Administra-

tors but they don't do much.

 

The Scanner. The Scanner's job is to scan IP

ranges where fast Internet connection are

knwon to lie (usually university, etc.) for com-

puters with remote-root vulnerabilities. We're

talking brute forcing MS SQL and Netbios

passwords, sacnning for servers with the IIS

Unicode bug (yes that three-year-old one). Oh

yes, FXP Boards are where the lowest of the

low Script Kiddies lurk. The Scanner will of-

ten use already "hacked" computers for his

scanning (known as scanstro's), using "remote

scan" programs such as SQLHF, XScan, Fs-

can, and HScan alsong with a nice programs to

hide them (hiderun.exe) from the user of the

computer. Once the Scanner has gotten his re-

sults, he'll run off to his FXP Board and post it.

This is where the "Hacker" comes into play.

 

The "Hacker"/Script Kiddie/dot-slash Kid-

die. Now I think it's fairly obvious what the

"Hackers" do. (They actually call themselves

hackers!) Yes, they break into computers.

Their OS of choice (for breaking into) is usu-

ally Windows. There are many easy to exploit

vulnerabilities and *nix scares these people.

The Hacker's job is to run his application and

"root" the scanned server. The program he uses

(of course) depends upon the vulnerability the

Scanner has scanned for. For example, if it's

Netbios Password he will often either use

psexec (www.sysinternals.com) or DameWare

NT Utilities. There are various other vulnera-

bilities and programs used - too many to list

here. Once he has "rooted" the computer (this

usually means getting a remote shell with ad-

min rights), he will use a technique known as

"the tftp method" or "the echo methods" (tftp -i

IP get file.exe) to upload and install an FTPD

(this is almost always Serv-U) on his target. (In

the case of the IRC Kiddies this would also be

iroffer.) Once the FTPD is installed and work-

ing he'll post the "admin" logins to the FTP

server on his FXP Board. Depending on the

speed of the compromised computer's (or

"pubstro"/"stro") Internet connection and the

hard drive space, it will be "taken" either by a

Filler or a Scanner.

 

 

The Filler. Now if the "pubstro" is fast

enough and has enough hard drive space, it's

the Filler's job to get to work filling it with the

latest warez (the Filler usually has another

source for his warez such as Site Trading).

Once he's done FXPing his warez, the Filler

goes back to the board and posts "leech logins"

(read only logins) for one and all to use. What

a great community!

 

FXP Boards are mostly full of Script Kid-

dies and people with too much time on their

hands. They like to think the FBI are after them

and get very paranoid, but in reality no one re-

ally gives a damn what they're up to except the

unlucky sysops who get all their bandwidth

eaten up because they forgot to patch a three

year-old vulnerability. The true "n00b" FXP

Boards can be found on wondernet (irc.won-

dernet.nu) so, if you like, go sign up on one

and see what it's all about. Tip: Pretend to be

female. This will almost guarantee you a place

on a board. Say you can scan/hack dcom, net-

bios, sql, apache, and have a 10mbit.eu 0hour

source.

 

Site Trading

 

Next on the list and pretty much at the top

or near the top (as far as I've seen) are the Site

Traders. These are generally just people with

too much time on their hands who have possi-

bly workrd their way up through FXP Boards.

Site Trading is basically theraing of pirated

material between sites.

 

The Sites. These sites have very fast Inter-

net connections (10mbit is considered the min-

imum, 100mbit good, and anything higher

pretty damn good) and huge hard disk drives

(200GB would probably be the minimum).

These sites are often hosted at schools, univer-

sities, people's work,, and in Sweden (10mbit

lines are damn cheap in .se). These sites are re-

ferred to as being "legit." This means that the

owner of the computer knowns that they are

there and being run. Fast connections mean a

lot to some people. If you have access to a

100mbit line (and are wiling to run a warez

server there), there are people who would quite

happily pay for and have a computer shipped

to you just for hosting a site that they will

make absolutely no profit from (you can meet

them on EFnet). Unfortunately, this is where

credit card fraud can come into Site Trading.

This is frowned upon by pretty much everyone

(there is already enough paranoia and risk in

Site Trading) but some people do use stolen

credit card information to buy hard drives and

such. To be fair, Site Traders aren't a bad bunch

- the majority don't even beleieve in making any

money out of it and insist they are just do-

ing it for fun. Anyways, back to the sites.

GLFTPD is considered to be the FTPD to use

(in fact, a lot of Site Traders and warez groups

will not join a site unless it is running

GLFTPD). This also means that *nix is the OS

of choice (as there is no GLFTPD win port).

As well as running FTPD, the sites run an

eggdrop bot with various scripts installed. The

bot will amke an annoucement on an IRC

channel a directory is made or up-

load completed. It will also give race informa-

tiopn.

 

The People. There are basically two ranks

in sitetrading: "SiteOps" and "Racers."

 

SiteOps, as you will have guessed are the

administrators. There are usually between two

and five SiteOps. One is often the supplier of

the site, another the person who found the sup-

plier and guided them through the installation

of the FTPD. The other will be friends and

people involved in the arez scene. One or

more of the SiteOps will be the "nuker." IT is

his job to "nuke" any releases that are old or

fake (more about releases shorly).

 

Racers are the folks who will "race" re-

leases between sites. Usually they will have

access to a number of sites and will FXP re-

lease as soon as they're released. FXPing a re-

lease will gain credits. The ratio is usually 1:3,

so FXPing 100MB will get them 300MB cred-

its on the site, allowing them to FXP 300MB of

data from that site, which will gain them

900mb where they FXP that, etc., etc. "Rac-

ing" of releases occurs when two or more rac-

ers are uploading the same file. The "race" is to

upload the most of the release at the fastest

speed. Racing happends shortly after a release

is... released.

 

Warez/Release Groups/"grps"

 

These are the ones basically supplying

everyone with the warez. These are the ones

the MPAA and RIAA don't seem to be too wor-

ried about, or at least aren't making a big pub-

lic fuss about. However, these groups are

known to the FBI and they know that the FBI

and whatever other authorities are watching

them and collecting evidence. They know that

one day these authorities will strike as they

have done in the past. A lot of these people are

just hoping that they won't be caught when it

happens. As a result of this, anyone "high up"

is extremely paranoid. Most users will use

multiple BNCs (BouNCer, an IRC proxy) be-

fore even going near an IRC network. A lot of

large groups will own their own IRC Networks

and SSL is used at every opportunity (FTP,

IRC, etc.) It's hard to understand why these

people actually do it when there is such a risk.

The main reasons are, in my opinion, boredom.

At the end of the day, if you're sitting in front

of your computer for most of your life you may

as well be doung something other than flaming

AOLers on IRC, and this sort of thing keeps

you busy. Another reason is geekiness. Know-

ing that you were one of the first people on the

Internet to see that film, or that's because of

you that thousands of people are now playing

that leaked Halflife 2 alpha and there are news

articles everywhere about this "anonymous

leaker" - it feels good, in a geeky kind of way.

A lot of these people (not all, not all) may have

rather uneventful lives and to know that, al-

though at schol, college, or work they're con-

sidered a loser, they can go home at night and

be looked upon as some kind of god within

their group of online friends would feel good.

 

I do not believe that profit is a factor. These

groups insist that they don't do this soft of

thing for money, and I believe them.

 

There's a quote from a DEViANCE.nfo file:

We do this just for FUN. We are against any

profit or commercialisation of piracy. We do

not spread any release, others do that. In fact,

we BUY all our hames with our own hard

earned and worked for efforts. Which is from

our own real life non-scene jobs. As we love

game originals. Nother beats a quality origi-

nal. "If you like this game, BUY it. We did!"

 

A quote from Team Razor .nfo file: SUP-

PORT THE COMPANIES THAT PRODUCE

QUALITY SOFTWARE! IF YOU ENJOYED

THIS PRODUCT, BUY IT! SOFTARE AU-

THORS DESERVE SUPPORT!!

 

Releases

 

A release is a piece of pirated material

packaged and released by a warez group. The

format of the release varies, but in the case of

games or programs the release is usually in

bin/cue, compressed with RAR, and split into

15,000,000 bite files. The naming of the re-

lease will usually by something along the lines

of "New.Game.3-ReLEASEGROUP".

 

The types of releases vary. In games there

are mainly either CD Images (bin/cue format)

or Rips. Movies are either DivX/Xivds (two or

three bin/cue files). There are many different

types of movie releases. A great list of these

can be found at www.vcdquality.com. Releases

will almost always be accompanied by a .nfo

file. This will provide information about the re-

lease and the group.

 

Additional Info

 

The following information is not from first

hand experience, like the past information has

been. This has been obtained from text files,

told to me by people, and assumed. It will be

mostly accurate, but there may well be errors.

 

The main members of any release group

are:

 

The Supplier. This is the guy working at the

local cinema or games store, the guy with the

digital camera happy to sneak into the cin-

ema , etc. Generally these people have to have

access to new material, usually before anyone

else gets to it. Often they will also have to have

a fairly decent upload speed.

 

The Cracker. (only in games/apps groups)

This wlll vary between groups. For example, a

VCD/SVCD group would not require a

cracker. But the cracker plays an important

role. He will have to crack the game's protec-

tion that stops the game from being pleyed

without the official CD. This guy usually has a

fair bit of programming experience and can be

quite smart.

 

Site Supplier. Similar to Site Trading, how-

ever warez groups are often more picky about

the sites they choose. The minimum speed is

usually 100Mbit and often groups will only

accept site that are being supplied by the ac-

tual System Ops/Admins themselves.

 

Courier. This guy's role is basically Site

Trading. He has to distribute the group's re-

lease to other sites.

 

Terms you may have hard and their mean-

ings:

 

PRE/PRE'd. When a release is released an-

nouncements will be made across many IRC

channels called "PRE Chans." This is called

the "PRE Time" and is the official time of re-

lease. PRE Time is used mainly in site trading.

 

0*. This is reference to how new the re-

lease is.

 

0sec. This is a dream - n00b IRC Chans of-

then use this term but they are lying.

 

0hour. Mean the release was PRE'd under

an hour ago.

 

0day. Mean the release was PRE'd under a day

ago. (Typo-error in article, was "an hour ago".)

 

And so on...

 

Nuked. If a release is Nuked, the uplaoder

of the release will lose credits on the site he is

Nuked on. A release is Nuked when it is break-

ing site rules (like eight hours of PRE or ear-

lier).

 

Pubstro/Stro. This is a computer that has

been compromised and has an FTPD running

on it. It will be used to share warez, mainly to

the FXP Community.

 

ScanStro. Similar to the above, but is used

to scan for other vulneralbe computers.

 

Pub/Pubbing. Pubs are dard. These are

from the old days when many university and

business FTP servers had write access enabled

on anonymous accounts. So instead of break-

ing into a computer, the warez kiddies would

just upload their warez and give the IP address

to their friends. This war very popular but died

out for obvious reasons.

 

Tagging. Once found a Pub would be

"tagged" (a folder with the name

"tagged.by.lamepubkiddie" or something simi-

lar would be made). The idea was that if a Pub

war already "tagged" other Pubbers would

leave it alone. This apparently worked for a

while, with people respecting other people's

tags and leaving the Pubs alone. But it cer-

tainly hasn't worked for a very long time.

 

Dir Locking. This war used in Pubbing to

stop people other that your warez group find-

ing and downloading your warez (and slowing

the server down). You would hide it, using di-

rectory names such as "com1" and "." These

directory names would also be hard to delete or

even open, so it could take some time before

the warez were found by the server admin.

 

Raping. The act of Raping an FTP server is

when someone downloads pretty much every-

thing then can from it at a very fast speed. It's

frowned upon.

 

Leeching. Downlaoding a lot without up-

loading.

 

PubStealing/Rehacking. Back "in the day"

this would have been referring to as uploading

to an already tagged Pub. Now it means replac-

ing someone else's Serv-U with yours- Pub-

Stealing is frowned upon and people will often

be banned from FXP Boards if they are found

to be doing it.

 

Securing. The act of Securing a pubstro

would involve deleting key files such as

ftp.exe, tftp.exe, cmd.exe, etc. or changing the

username/password. Securing methods depend

upon the vulnerability.

 

Some warez related links:

 

www.nforce.nl - a site that archive .nfos and

releases. This site is frowned upon by people

in "the scene".

 

www.isonews.com - a site seized by the federal

government.

 

www.vcdquality.com - for movies specifically.

 

www.fxp.nl - fxp stuff

 

www.jtpfxp.net - rather large archive of

fxp/script kiddie tutorials.

 

www.packetnews.org - XDCC search engine.

 

www.downhillbattle.org - not related, but fuck

the RIAA!

 

If I've mentioned a program and not give a

link it's because it can be easily found through

Google.

 

That's all. I hope this has give someone a

better view of piracy.
