Writeups
Rather than limit myself to a “Mods and Hacks” section like I had before the script kiddy, I’ve decided to create just an all-around cache of some of my writeups. Reviews, essays, how-to’s…it’s all here.
Reviews
Read about my efforts to poke, probe, and otherwise tear to pieces anything I come across for your benefit.
- FinalBurner Free Edition, reviewed 12/31/2007.
How-To Guides
Follow along as I hack, crack, modify, and otherwise tear apart or repurpose things.
- Hacking La Fonera - Mod the La Fonera router with DD-WRT firmware to increase its functionality to that of a more expensive router, without increasing the price (which hopefully was free).
- Installing iWork ‘08 on <10.4.10 - Why should you be limited to the most recent updated version of Apple’s OS X Tiger (10.4) operating system when older ones work fine?
- Installing iLife ‘08 on <10.4.9 - Why should we be all work and no play? That’s why I’m back with a how-to to install the fun half of Apple’s extra software.
- Razr Rebranding - Change the logo that your V3* Razr displays when you open it up.
- Hamachi As A Service - For free, you can get the same feature that LogMeIn thinks is the paid version of Hamachi’s claim to fame.
- Removing The Chat From Facebook Chat - FBC annoys me, even when it’s turned off. So here’s a quick and dirty way of pulling the plug…permanently.
General Writeups
Not in the mood to do something you’re not supposed to? That’s alright, we can poke cattle prods at stuff too. Or just read about whatever I haven’t hacked apart yet.
- Wimz-icle - A (brief) look at the underlying structure behind AOL’s Wimzi IM widget service.
- Caffeinated Concoctions - Nothing more than a boredom killer for me to write up, these are random drink mixes I’ve come up with that taste good (to me).
- Peeling “pci32b.exe” - My analysis of a (common?) trojan found on one of my systems that seems to have gone unnoticed thus far.
