[Informative] Is Your Phone being TAPPED?

After a phone tapping scandal took centre stage in Indian parliament, the Indian Govt. has again come under scanner, following the reports of Indian Finance Minister's room allegedly being "bugged". It's not surprising then, if the thought, 'Is my phone being tapped?' crosses one's mind.

While it is typically illegal to bug (listen to the conversations remotely) anyone's phone in India, it's very easy to tap a landline connection. If you ever hooked up another phone in your house, technically you have tapped your phone line. A phone line has a green and red copper wire, which form a circuit. The wire transmit sound waves as an electric current, which a telephone company sends through wires connected to the phone. It's easy to add a new load to the circuit board along this path.

This method, however, is too primitive in today's tech-savvy world. Eavesdroppers now use bugs within microphones that pick up sound waves directly. The sound runs to a radio transmitter, which transmits a signal varying with the current. Those spying on you could set up a nearby radio receiver that picks up this signal and sends it to a speaker or encodes it on a tape.


An ultrasonic or VLF bug is a technique used to convert the sound into an audio signal above range of human hearing. An RF (radio frequency) bug is the most well-known bugging device, through which a radio transmitter is placed in an area or device. An optical bug converts sound into an optical pulse or a beam of light. It is rarely used, expensive, and easy to detect.

Bugs would need a sweep to be detected, since all complicated equipment can be concealed from telephone lines. However, the radio receiver has to be within range of the transmitter - for instance, in a van parked outside a house.

Various companies also sell spy software like 'Ultimate Bluetooth mobile phone spy 2010', with which one can easily eavesdrop on anyone's calls, or even read SMSs. FlexiSpy, for instance, is a software that can be downloaded on a phone, which collects all available data and sends it to a web account for viewing. Another tool, the Spybubble Cell Phone Spying Software, can be downloaded for approx $60, allows live call interception, recording of incoming and outgoing call history, viewing text messages and transfer of recorded mobile phone activities into a remote server for storage.

It is common knowledge that every mobile subscriber's phone conversations are recorded and retained for seven days, primarily to monitor various communications channels used by terrorists. Tracking would be easier with 3G phones, since the base stations would be located close to each other.

However, there are ways to counter phone-tapping threats. A high-tech 'frequency finder bug detector', for instance, can detect phones, hidden cameras, eavesdropping devices or bugs. An RF 'telephone analyzer' can alert about a wiretrap on a telephone line. A computer controlled unit from Brickhouse Security continuously sweeps a telephone and phone line for any eavesdropping. It also sweeps a room for RF bugs (the detection frequency ranges from 70Mhz to 2Ghz).

Data encryption technology too, helps to curtail unauthorised phone-tapping to an extent. However, as encryption capabilities improve, so do wiretapping techniques. Being aware, however, can be of immense help.

Tweak Your Internet for Good Browsing Speed and Faster Ping

After a long break, I am finally back with a tweak that may help you to increase your Internet Browsing Speed. For understanding this tweak, you have to have a basic knowledge of the words that are generally used in networking like Ping, Jitter etc. 

You also should be familiar with the Registry editing as well as you should also know using Windows Batch Files. Because this tweak is all about editing Registry & tweaking the internet using a .bat(Windows Batch File). 

So, here is a brief knowledge about the words mentioned above:

Ping: This measurement tells how long it takes a "packet" of data to travel from your computer to a server on the Internet and back. Whenever you experience delayed responses in Internet applications - this would be due to a higher than desired ping. Similar to packet loss, lower is better when it comes to ping. A result below 100 ms should be expected from any decent broadband connection.

Jitter: Once you understand ping, jitter should also make sense. Jitter is merely the variance in measuring successive ping tests. Zero jitter means the results were exactly the same every time, and anything above zero is the amount by which they varied. Like the other quality measurements, a lower jitter value is better. And while some jitter should be expected over the Internet, having it be a small fraction of the ping result is ideal.

And here are some words related to your computer:

Registry: The Windows Registry is a hierarchical database that stores configuration settings and options on Microsoft Windows operating systems. It contains settings for low-level operating system components as well as the applications running on the platform: the kernel, device drivers, services, SAM, user interface and third party applications all make use of the registry. The registry also provides a means to access counters for profiling system performance.

Batch File: In DOS, OS/2, and Microsoft Windows, a batch file is a text file containing a series of commands intended to be executed by the command interpreter. Similar to job control language and other systems on mainframe and minicomputer systems, batch files were added to ease the work required for certain regular tasks by allowing the user to set up a batch script to automate many commands.

So now, after understanding this knowledge, I shall make you know that by tweaking Registry and applying some TCP/IP commands via Batch file, you can tweak your internet connection easily.

Tweaking the Registry and writing the long command lines are very annoying and time consuming. So, to reduce the time consumption, I have created the two files, which will automatically change the required settings. Here are the Download links for the files.

1. Network Tweaked.bat
2. Network.reg

After downloading these files, first run the Network.reg file. It will prompt a warning window, select "yes".

Then Right click on the file "Network Tweaked.bat" and select "Run As Administrator".

After doing this, restart your computer and see the difference.

Before applying this tweak, back up your registry to prevent any loss.

This is a knowledge based article. CyberTechBlog.tk is not responsible for any loss occurs.

Twitter hit with new spam

A series of third party apps began filtering through Twitter overnight that sent spam messages from users' accounts without their knowledge.

In one example, Twitter users were told that a new app could tell them how many other Twitter users had "unfollowed" them on the service. Once a user signed up for the app, his/her account would automatically send the same message to all followers, asking them to verify their account and then take them to a spam advertising site. 

Del Harvey, director of Twitter's Trust & Safety team, became aware of the spam application early Tuesday and quickly suspended the accounts. "The latest round (but surely not the last!) pf scammy, spammy apps have been suspended; avoid clicking on those bad apps!" Harvey wrote in a Twitter message.

Carolyn Penner, a Twitter spokeswoman wrote in an e-mail that no one's account was compromised beyond the spam messages. "We suspended several apps that were created overnight," Penner wrote. "These apps claimed that users would be able to immediately see who unfollowed them once they granted the app access to their account."

Twitter has recently been battling a rising number of worm-like apps that hijack user accounts and send them to spam websites or send harmful messages through their Twitter account without their knowledge.

Speed up your Internet via "ISC BIND local DNS Server" or "Google Open DNS Server"

Many of the internet surfers (I should call them "Netizens" rather) most commonly, are not satisfied with their current internet connection speed. They are always in search of some tricks and tweaks to increase their internet connection speed. Most tweaks found on internet either works partially or don't work at all, which lead to frustration and waste of the time. So, to save the time and also to save you from such embarrassment. here I've come up with a small trick that will increase your internet connection speed a bit.

The most useful tool for the whole internet establishment is the DNS server (Domain Name Server). Without it the internet is not possible. It is used every time you type and hit enter in your browser address bar. The DNS server is used to convert the normal website address to the IP address with the help of it's directory in which, the  IP address are stored for the websites all around the web. Moreover, due to its usefulness and functionality, it also can be used to increase your internet speed. More fast the DNS server is, the more time you save which results in increase of your browsing speed.

Most of the ISPs (Internet Service Provoders), use their own DNS server for more reliability and security. But if you are not satisfied with your ISP's DNS server, you may use this trick.

To be precise, there are two tricks for it.

1. Using Google open DNS Server
2. Using local DNS Server on your computer

Google open DNS Server

First, i will tell you about the Google Open DNS Server. their IP addresses are as following

• 8.8.8.8
• 8.8.4.4

To change DNS Server, Goto,

Control Panel> Network and Internet> View network status and tasks

At this point you will get the following window...

 Then click on "Local Area Connection"

Then Click on "Properties"

Then DOUBLE CLICK on "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)

Then change the DNS Server to 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4

If you don't see any change in your speed, use the below trick.....

Using Local DNS Server (ISC BIND)

You can also use the local DNS Server located on your computer. The most commonly used local DNS Server is ISC BIND. Just download and install it and see the change.....

Nokia & Microsoft move forward to take on Apple, Google

Nokia Oyj, the world's biggest maker of mobile phones, said it's forming a software partnership with Microsoft Corp, betting that together the two companies can challenge Google Inc and Apple Inc.

Nokia shares fell as much as 12% in Helsinki, the biggest drop in a almost 10 months, after it's plan to make Microsoft's Windows its primary software was seen as a sign of the extent of its troubles taking on Apple's iOS and Google's Android platforms.

The move may be the biggest strategy shift by Nokia since the one-time wood pulp company began making mobile phones in the 1980s. Nokia was struggling to revive after its piece of the fast growing smartphone market plunged to 27.1% in the last quarter from 50.8% when Apple shipped its iPhone in June 2007, according to Gartner Inc. Nokia has lost more than 60% of its market value that time.

Microsoft, whose Windows Mobile Software licences were doubling annually before iPhone hit the market, has likewise struggled to win acceptance for its revamped Windows Phone 7 OS.

The deal gives Microsoft access to one of the world's largest mobile distribution networks. Under the plan unveiled, Nokia and Microsoft will combine assets and jointly develop and market mobile products, As the Microsoft CEO said that the partnership will "drive innovation". According to the deal, Nokia's Maps product will become a core part of Microsoft's service, while Microsoft's development tools will create applications for Nokia Windows Phones
.
Nokia plans to "substantially reduce" its research and development budget. At 5.9 billion euros ($8.1 billion), Nokia's R&D spending is more than four times that of Apple's. Nokia said there will be "significant reductions" in Nokia jobs.
