    Default Things Not To Do

    Things not to do to a customers computer

    Customer wanted XP on her computer
    nice and straight forward must have done over 500 by now LOL
    well I plugged my usb external HDD to back up Pictures word docs Etc
    so i can reload them when the new OS is on the computer
    All good so I stick in the XP boot disc and i see the HDD
    is partitioned to C and D drives no problem o done it millions of times
    but do you think I can get rid of the partition and just have one drive no bloody way tried over 10 different programs even the old 98 disc and the bloody D: drive wont go so i keep formatting running fdisk and nudda
    looked inside box and there was no other HDD hiding inside the box what so ever

    Can any one see what stupid thing I did LOL it has only taken me 3 bloody hours to find out see if you can guess
    When you do things right, people won't be sure that you have done anything at all

    Sent her pictures and files to null....

    At least getdataback should work.

    It reminds me of the story of bitchchecker formating his C: drive

    The story starts (I'm shortcutting here) with a kid insulting everyone on the #stopHipHop IRC channel. Most people there believed it was rather funny, but it got even more funny...
    * bitchchecker (~java@euirc-a97f9137.dip.t-dialin.net) Quit (Ping timeout#)
    * bitchchecker (~java@euirc-61a2169c.dip.t-dialin.net) has joined #stopHipHop
    <bitchchecker> why do you kick me
    <bitchchecker> can't you discus normally
    <bitchchecker> answer!
    <Elch> we didn't kick you
    <Elch> you had a ping timeout: * bitchchecker (~java@euirc-a97f9137.dip.t-dialin.net) Quit (Ping timeout#)
    <bitchchecker> what ping man
    <bitchchecker> the timing of my pc is right
    <bitchchecker> i even have dst
    <bitchchecker> you banned me
    <bitchchecker> amit it you son of a bitch
    <HopperHunter|afk> LOL
    <HopperHunter|afk> shit you're stupid, DST^^
    <bitchchecker> shut your mouth WE HAVE DST!
    <bitchchecker> for two weaks already
    <bitchchecker> when you start your pc there is a message from windows that DST is applied.
    <Elch> You're a real computer expert
    <bitchchecker> shut up i hack you
    <Elch> ok, i'm quiet, hope you don't show us how good a hacker you are ^^
    <bitchchecker> tell me your network number man then you're dead
    <Elch> Eh, it's 129.0.0.1
    <Elch> or maybe 127.0.0.1
    <Elch> yes exactly that's it: 127.0.0.1 I'm waiting for you great attack
    <bitchchecker> in five minutes your hard drive is deleted
    <Elch> Now I'm frightened
    <bitchchecker> shut up you'll be gone
    <bitchchecker> i have a program where i enter your ip and you're dead
    <bitchchecker> say goodbye
    <Elch> to whom?
    <bitchchecker> to you man
    <bitchchecker> buy buy
    <Elch> I'm shivering thinking about such great Hack0rs like you
    * bitchchecker (~java@euirc-61a2169c.dip.t-dialin.net) Quit (Ping timeout#)

    What happened is clear: That guy entered his own IP address in his mighty Hack-Tool and crashed his own PC. This way, the attack on my PC was a failure.

    I was already starting to think that I did not have to worry, but a good hacker never calls it a day. Two minutes later he returned.
    * bitchchecker (~java@euirc-b5cd558e.dip.t-dialin.net) has joined #stopHipHop
    <bitchchecker> dude be happy my pc crashed otherwise you'd be gone
    <Metanot> lol
    <Elch> bitchchecker: Then try hacking me again... I still have the same IP: 127.0.0.1
    <bitchchecker> you're so stupid man
    <bitchchecker> say buy buy
    <Metanot> ah, [Please control your cussing] off
    <bitchchecker> buy buy elch
    * bitchchecker (~java@euirc-b5cd558e.dip.t-dialin.net) Quit (Ping timeout#)

    There was a tension in the room... Would he manage, after these two failures, to crash my PC? I waited. Nothing happened. I felt relieve...

    Six minutes passed by until he prepared the next wave of attack. Being a Hacker, who usually cracks whole data centers, he knew what his problem was now.
    * bitchchecker (~java@euirc-9ff3c180.dip.t-dialin.net) has joined #stopHipHop
    <bitchchecker> elch you son of a bitch
    <Metanot> bitchchecker how old are you?
    <Elch> What's up bitchchecker?
    <bitchchecker> you have a frie wal
    <bitchchecker> fire wall
    <Elch> maybe, i don't know
    <bitchchecker> i'm 26
    <Metanot> such behaviour with 26?
    <Elch> how did you find out that I have a firewall?
    <Metanot> tststs this is not very nice missy
    <bitchchecker> because your gay fire wall directed my turn off signal back to me
    <bitchchecker> be a man turn that shit off
    <Elch> cool, didn't know this was possible.
    <bitchchecker> thn my virus destroys your pc man
    <Metanot> are you hacking yourselves?
    <Elch> yes bitchchecker is trying to hack me
    <Metanot> he bitchchecker if you're a hacker you have to get around a firewall even i can do that
    <bitchchecker> yes man i hack the elch but the sucker has a fire wall the
    <Metanot> what firewall do you have?
    <bitchchecker> like a girl
    <Metanot> firewall is normal a normal hacker has to be able to get past it...you girl^^
    <He> Bitch give yourself a jackson and chill you're letting them provoce you and give those little girls new material all the time
    <bitchchecker> turn the firewall off then i send you a virus [Please control your cussing]er
    <Elch> Noo
    <Metanot> he bitchchecker why turn it off, you should turn it off
    <bitchchecker> you're afraid
    <bitchchecker> i don't wanna hack like this if he hides like a girl behind a fire wall
    <bitchchecker> elch turn off your shit wall!
    <Metanot> i wanted to say something about this, do you know the definition of hacking??? if he turns of the firewall that's an invitation and that has nothing to do with hacking
    <bitchchecker> shut up
    <Metanot> lol
    <bitchchecker> my grandma surfs with fire wall
    <bitchchecker> and you suckers think you're cool and don't dare going into the internet without a fire wall

    He calls me girly and says only his grandma would use a firewall. I know that elder people are much more intelligent then younger, but I couldn't let that rest. To see whether he really is a good hacker I lie and let everything as it is. I don't have a firewall at all, only my router.
    <Elch> bitchchecker, a collegue showed me how to turn the firewall off. Now you can try again
    <Metanot> bitchhacker can't hack
    <Black<TdV>> nice play on words ^^
    <bitchchecker> wort man
    <Elch> bitchchecker: I'm still waiting for your attack!
    <Metanot> how many times again he is no hacker
    <bitchchecker> man do you want a virus
    <bitchchecker> tell me your ip and it deletes your hard drive
    <Metanot> lol ne give it up i'm a hacker myself and i know how hackers behave and i can tell you 100.00% you're no hacker..^^
    <Elch> 127.0.0.1
    <Elch> it's easy
    <bitchchecker> lolololol you so stupid man you'll be gone
    <bitchchecker> and are the first files being deleted
    <Elch> mom...
    <Elch> i'll take a look

    In panic I started the Windows Explorer, my heart beating faster. Had I under-estimated him?
    <bitchchecker> don't need to rescue you can't son of a bitch
    <Elch> that's bad
    <bitchchecker> elch you idiout your hard drive g: is deleted
    <Elch> yes, there's nothing i can do about it
    <bitchchecker> and in 20 seconds f: is gone

    Yes, true, G: and F: were gone. Did I ever have them? Doesn't matter, I did not have time to think, I was scared. bitchchecker was comforting me with a music tip.
    <bitchchecker> tupac rules
    <bitchchecker> elch you son of a bitch your f: is gone and e: too

    Drive E:? Oh my god... All the games are there! And the vacation pictures! I instantly take a look. Everything still there. But the hacker said it was deleted....

    Or isn't it happening on my computer?
    <bitchchecker> and d: is at 45% you idiot lolololol
    <He> why doesn't meta say anything
    <Elch> he's probably rolling on the floor laughing
    <Black<TdV>> ^^
    <bitchchecker> your d: is gone
    <He> go on BITCH

    The guy is good: My CD-drive is allegedly deleted! Bitchchecker turned my ancient disk sucker into a burner! But how did he do this? I'll have to ask him. Some encourage him. He himself is giving advice how to avoid the disaster on my hard drives.
    <bitchchecker> elch man you're so stupid never give your ip on the internet
    <bitchchecker> i'm already at c: 30 percent

    Should I tell him he's not attacking my computer?
    * bitchchecker (~java@euirc-9ff3c180.dip.t-dialin.net) Quit (Ping timeout#)

    Too late... It's 20:22 when we get the last message of our hacker with the alias "bitchchecker". We see that he has a "Ping timeout".

    We haven't seen him since then... must be the Daylight Saving Time.
    Reality is an invention of my imagination.

    You could be lucky if all you did was format.

    Try a program called getdataback it works pretty good on formatted hdds

    After 23 times of Formatting, Partitioning, Fdisking and zeroing the chances of recovery are slim but I might run a few programs over it and see what pops up LOL
