    Muslim Duties Fasting The fourth pillar of Islaam Is fasting which we do Once a year in Ramadaan To make us stronger too Right from when the day begins We start to fast you see And when the sun has set completely That's when we can eat Ramadaan is such a great time! More Qur'aan we read And Allaah gives us more rewards! For doing each good deed The gates of Paradise are opened During Ramadaan! It's a time when Muslims try To strengthen their Imaan Look forward then to Ramadaan For one month it will last And Allaah will give huge rewards For every single fast! The Five Pillars of Islam Allah is One and like no one, He has no partner, nor a son, He is Kind and Just and Wise, And has no form, shape or size. His final Messenger to all of us, Did so much without a fuss, Muhammad is his blessed name, As mercy to the worlds he came. Five times a day we make Salah, That's when we bow down to Allah, We ask for guidance when we pray, And this we do every single day. We have to share with those in need, And not give in to thoughts of greed, Zakah then helps us in this way, Lest we should err and go astray. In the month of Ramadan we must fast, From the first day to the last, When food and drink we put aside, By fasting rules we then abide. And all those who can afford, Seek the pleasure of their Lord, They perform their Hajj you know, When to Makkah the pilgrims go. Salat When the time has come to pray Put your little toys away Then go wash like you're told to It's time for your wudoo! Then come calmly to Salaah And concentrate before Allaah We stand before our Lord to pray He hears what you say We praise Allaah and ask Him to Keep us on His Path that's true We want to try to do things right And pray our best each day and night Dear young Muslim! Guard your prayer Great reward for you is there! Hajj For Allah, my heart went there Where I turn my face in Prayer It's a duty, this I know So to Makkah I did go For Allaah I packed my gear Then to His House I came near For my journey I was ready Allaah made me strong and steady I walked around the Ka'bah wall And teardrops from my eyes did fall Yearning was I for this day In Allaah's House to pray! Truly my heart, Allaah brought I thank Him for His support! With His Mercy I arrived Then home I went, purified!
  2. many thanks for those wise tips bruh... I recommend everyone going thru the above post by S1 ....Ramadan Kareem
  3. :eek: Exposing a weakness in Windows encryption technology, Swiss researchers have published a paper detailing how to crack Windows computers protected by alphanumeric passwords in an average of 13.6 seconds. The paper's lead author, Philippe Oechslin, told NewsFactor that his research is not specifically about Windows software. "I'm looking for encryption systems where there is no random information for security encryption," he said. He explained that Unix, Linux and Mac OS X use an initialization vector, also known as "salt," which can have 4,096 values, making cracking much more difficult. "On Windows, unfortunately, the two versions of password hashes (encoding technology) they use don't have salt, so we can precalcuate all of them," Oechslin said. Cracking Twelve Times Faster Oechslin is a senior research assistant at the Cryptography and Security Laboratory of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne. His paper builds on earlier cryptanalysis work published in the early 1980s, which detailed how to crack alphanumeric passwords using precalculated data stored in look-up tables. This greatly reduces the time needed to break a password. "As an example we have implemented an attack on Windows password hashes. Using 1.4 GB of data we can crack 99.9 percent of all alphanumerical passwords hashes in 13.6 seconds, whereas it takes 101 seconds with the current approach using distinguished points," Oechslin states. Furthermore, "We show that the gain could be much higher depending on the parameters used," he adds. Oechslin has not informed Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) of his research because "the theory has existed for twenty years, and everybody knows that Microsoft software doesn't have salt," he said. The paper is simply "the first time we've publicly seen such a tool." Using Basic Tools The system that Oechslin outlines uses a new way to organize large look-up tables to crack encryption algorithms. The larger the look-up table -- requiring ever more memory to handle -- the faster the password can be cracked. With the advances detailed in Oechslin's paper, a hacker with even modest resources can compromise alphanumeric Windows passwords quickly. The computer the researchers used was powered by an AMD (NYSE: AMD) Athlon XP 2500+ processor with 1.5 GB of RAM. "The data we use for the cracking is actually 0.95 GB," Oechslin said. Public Demo To demonstrate the effectiveness of the research, the Swiss researchers have posted a Web page that allows users to demo the technique. "You are allowed to crack only the passwords of your own computer," states the site. After the site has processed a user request, it lists that user's email, hash and password on the site. On a recent visit, there were 248 requests in queue. "It's terrible," Oechslin said, referring to the site's backlog of requests. "We now have limited the queue to 100." To take part in the demo, users must enter the encrypted version of their password, Oechslin explained. This is stored on a user's hard drive, and a user must have administrator privileges to access it. To access this encrypted password, a user will need special applications, which the site's FAQ explains. Allowing users to hack passwords at a public site "is not as terrible as it sounds," Oechslin said, noting that "you have to be an administrator already to find the password." The research team will not distribute the code. Building a Tougher Password The deficiencies of passwords are no surprise to Yankee Group security analyst Eric Ogren, who noted that there are numerous weaknesses to this oft-used authentication scheme. "Passwords are a necessary evil," Ogren told NewsFactor. Both Ogren and Oechslin gave the same advice for beefing up password strength: Include non-alphanumeric characters in your password, such as a question mark or a plus sign. "We've been telling them that for years," Oechslin said. Also, Windows users should not use the older type of hash technology, the LANManager, Oechslin said. "This is even easier to crack than the newer one, the NTHash."

  12. where do u host your site???
  13. ooh i see... you can upload your files to some place like yahoo geocities (geocities.com) but first of all u have to be registered.... lemme know if there's something else..
