What's going on here then? BinaryPhoenix is back online!? Yup
Binary Phoenix was originally taken down over a year ago, simply because I wasen't updating it, and didn't feel like wasting bandwidth on the site.
However, because of the need for a portfolio site for myself during university, I've re-instated the site. Over the next few days I'll be updating the site to make it feel more like a portfolio site, fix bugs, as well as to remove a lot of the garbage currently on the site. Hopefully this should all be finished within the next couple of weeks.
Also keep an eye out for new software, games and similar. I'll be starting to upload some new things in the coming months!

Are you reading this message? If so congratulations. Your DNS servers have no resolved the binaryphoenix.com domain to our new host, a delicious VPS supplied by linode.com.
Hopefully this new host should allow me more room to expand on some of my sites, as well as be able to run servers for some applications I'm working on.

PRLib is a collection of source code, written over the course of a few months, that is designed to recover login information from propriatory software on a users computer.
This source code can be used for users such as importing information from one piece of software to a new version, writing recovery software for an end-user, it can even be used to write things like PasswordJacker (in fact this is some of the base-code for it).
The use of this code as you can imagine can be quite dangerous if miss-treated. I advise you not to do anything illegal with this, but I understand I can't stop some of you, I just ask you not to abuse it.
You can download the source code from the projects page as usual, or use the direct link here.

Just uploaded the first build of a website I've been working on for the last couple of weeks. Basically its just a free hosting service for image boards. Its still very early in development and still has a lot of stuff to implement (not to mention the main site badly needs a theme that matchs the boards default theme). But its getting there.
Anyhow, to the point, I need some testers. Just jump in and try and break the site, and post any issues you find (there should be quite a lot, tens of thousands of lines of untested source
).
Also be aware that a lot of the graphics and textural content is all place holders (hence why the front page has a similar style of invisionfree
, and the logo is two lines of crap text)

On the suggestion of one of my friends from college (Izzy), I've added support for recovering Second Lfie password hashes into password jacker. Sadly second life uses one-way hashes so you'll need to do a bit of brute forcing to actually get the password, however given that it uses straight md5 with no salt it shouldn't take you to long to recover simple passwords (as sadly most are) with some good quality rainbow tables.
You can check out password jacker as always on the projects page, or you can click this direct link.
http://passwordjacker.com/index.php?action=projects&id=22For those of you who are actually curious, Second Life stores your account details in the following files;
For Vista / Windows 7C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\SecondLife\user_settings\settings.xml
C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\SecondLife\user_settings\password.dat
The first file stores the users first name and last name, along with some other misc information. The second stores an MD5 hash of the users password that has been XOr ciphered with the 6 byte MAC address of the network adapter used to interact with the second life servers (when using the netbios function to list adapters, it's usually the first adapter thats state is set to up).
If you can't dehash the users password but still want to use the account. You can take that hash and encrypt it using the MAC address of your own computer, then replace your password.dat file with the result and finally set your ...
