Hack Internet Explorer

Hi everybody!

Does anybody out there know how to trace all the stuff that MS Internet Explorer sends to my modem?!?
Please tell me everything you know (links etc)!

How much do you know about TCP/IP , Winsock, and what not in programming?

Hm, I know some TCP/IP Protocols (Telnet, POP3, SMTP, etc).
And WinSock? I wrote a simple Client for this Protocols and a server to test some stuff (it works like BackOrifice) but i haven't finished it cause there's not much time for programming in my life! [I've found out that C++ is your favorite area! It's mine too, but I'm still learning it...]

Hmm where'd you find that out, I dont remeber sticking it on my signature (maybe you read the profile here) anyways as far as IE goes, is there a particular reason you want to know what IE is sending to the modem? perhaps there is a different way to go about this, I dont know of any way currently to trap all the information it sends, you may be able to see all the window messages it makes with Spy++ (comes with Visual Studio) not sure if that would help much. also far as time programming goes, I have time since it's my job.

One day you'll see how I've found that out... =)

I know Spy++ but that's not what i need and want.
I want to log everything IE connects to and which stuff it send anywhere!

I see, maybe you could clos eeveyrhing except IE, run a dos prmpt, and type in netstat -a , and do that a couple times, everytime you do something with IE and see what new connections have opened. or you could download ZoneAlarm Pro, and see if that has any logging features, are we wanting to monitor URLs it hits, or the whole shabang (all it's TCP/IP requests, and so forth)

Oh using that netstat method, I Found out the IP of anyone I talk to on ICQ(without the help of some little program) since basically everytime you message someone it's a direct connection (The program just routes your message to the right IP) but also found out ICQ keeps those connections open until you close the program, so it was a real hog on my line if I had alot of people trying to message me at about the same point of time.

OK, I could use netstat with an interval of 1 second, but then I need to log the console output. Which API can I use there? ReadConsole or ReadConsoleOutput? Hm, I think my CPU is too slow for that. Is there any Callback to read console output?

You can log your responses into a file

netstat -a > Mylog.txt

using the parseing ">" will stick itinto a file
with the interval turned on, it'll keep writing to a file, unles you pres Escape.

Ah, the good old DOS times...

I used to be pretty heavy with DOS in the past, since I felt it was the fastest way to get some things done (it really sucks that WinME will not have a dos prompt, nor will it have a Dos RealMode you can boot into)

I HATE MICROSOFT! Why are they doing this §$%"&%§*???

I think LINUX is much better for internet, cause every tool windows provides for TCP/IP (netstat, ping, telnet) does exist on LINUX systems as well and it looks like a DOS prompt :)...


I have to go offline now...
