got windows 10, don't know why (personally want debian with kali repositories listed in source file) and i found a folder in c:\ named "windows.old" (contains system files for win 7) and out of curiosity i opened the SAM file with only admin privileges. As the SAM file is vulnerable to offline attacks, i think it is the same idea. but just wanted to share with you. Thanks for listening to my jibba jabba.


best of luck! (with whatever you are doing)

If there is nothing in the hosts then that is strange, but as far as my little puddle of knowledge goes in terms of this problem. I am sure other people with more know how than me will help you. But apart from that. Good luck!

It could be the hosts file, but then, the possibility of that is fairly small. But 0.0.0.0 sounds odd for your router.

Hi all,

I am a young human of the male gender who is fond of gardening, origami and, obviously, computing (to a digree).
I have tried to learn advanced stuff before learning the basics first ( i was pretty stubborn then, especially when it came to learning unfortunately) and obviously failed. So i have started a fresh a year ago and with my spare time learnt the basics, worked pretty hard at school and watered the garden. So i have learnt basic tcp/ip, operating systems, batch programming, unix/linux and a reasonably small digree of hacking. I know i can't just jump into anything, just that i don't know where to look. I am looking for the right programming language, something you have probably heard 1000001 times. I have learnt html and css, and a small amount of php. But obviously that is hardly anything, so i have my eye set on something less web-based and more bare bones. Assembly is one of my main contenders along with c++ . But this is a forum and would appreciate any advice or directions, and more importantly opinions. Sorry for any grammatical errors or mistakes concerning what i have said.

Thank you for your time
