“You are driving in a very populated area where every minute some one is either trying to get under your car/bike or over your car/bike and all of a sudden your mobile phone beep starts. You think this must be the address you have been trying to reach from past one hour sent by your friend. You just push the break, escape a narrow accident and eagerly unlock your cell phone and read the message. To your utter surprise it is your carrier telling you that now you can download some new ringtones from their site.”
If that’s not enough, here is another scenario, (more…)
Well, I know another 9/11 has been speculated to great extent but I was thinking that although America want’s to disarm the only (declared) Muslim nuclear power from its nuclear assets in any case but can they really afford to have such kind of massacre on their own land, especially with the new party and supposedly liberal President in the white house?

National Response Center for Cyber Crimes (NR3C) is co-hosting the InfoSec 2008 – 4th International Conference on Information Security being held in Marriott Hotel, Islamabad on 27th August, 2008. Most important thing is that many distinguished Pakistani & International speakers will participate including Mr. Zahid Jameel of DNDRC fame. He will be speaking on cyber crimes and cyber prosecutions even his role has been very controversial on this subject. Well, I am concerned now. I don’t know how many cases have been resolved by NR3C so far and if they have played any role in the infamous djuice.pk case. But I really appreciate them for co-hosting such an event to help generate some awareness regarding IInformation Security.
On the contrary side, I do not see any professionalism (at least by looking at their website) at all. They look like typical Govt. employees who are least bothered (more…)
I don’t know if you are going to get it back ever but just in case, if you do get a chance, please, after being so much publicised, you should not be working as a Chief Justice of Pakistan. Your profession requires not to mingle so much with public so any relation developed may not interfere your judgment and corrosponding decision. You have been exposed to media to a great deal and great friendships being made as well. One can think that you may use your power to give the favor back to the “particular” community who have helped you in getting your seat back.
Here is a better course of action for you. (more…)
Pervez Musharaf has Resigned! yes you have heard it right. He has finally been forced to resign as President of Pakistan.
Well, it was a regime spanned on almost a decade. Now as he has left now, the most important thing is how we are going to deal with the impeachment process. Is their a deal been already made for a safe passage or he is going to face the court?
Considering our past record, no armed official has ever been put to Jail or faced trial in the 61 years of history. So I am pretty confidant to say that he will get a safe passage. Chapter closed.
Question is, who is going to be the next president of Pakistan? The real battle begins. Now we will start seeing all the tu-tu, mein-mein, chik-chik between the coalition parties every where. I am not a pro-Musharaf but the leadership we have is not any better than him. Infact, everything seemed alright before the incident of Lal Masjid and Chief Justice. The things I am going to be worried from now on are. (more…)
14th August 1947 was the day when we (common people) had gone through a change of our masters from Gorra Lords to Desi Lords. It’s been 61 years now they are sucking blood out of our veins and we are still determined to feed them as they may please.
Happy Independence day to the few ruling (ruining) families of Pakistan, for the rest Happy In-Dependence day!
(I have more screen shots and evidences of this software bug of PKNIC. These email owners must also have received an email of changed authorization codes to their site last night.)
Disclaimer:
This was not a “hack attack”. This was a very spontaneous act carried in good faith after seeing the authorization code bug on their site. I have not done any harm to any of the sites above. I just wanted to record this bug and brought this up all in public for the greater interest of whole Internet community of Pakistan to help make PKNIC improve their domain registration system and quality of service.
I could have changed anything from registrar/billing/technical information to DNS entries.
Should I have just changed their DNS to point them all to my site?
Well, even a small change in the DNS could have rendered any top Pakistani site, out of sight (and out of business) for at least 72 hours (more…)
