If no one else is willing, I can help you out weither with majordomo, or

Yes, but do we want them to always be hidden?

And the pgh.org location already makes them sort of hidden,

It is supposedly easier to install that majordomo.

They have tried many times, but I do not believe that anybody

  Well Texas has some very nice people--good recruiting ground by

  I never read him--but I note two things about him.  Like you pointed
out before he must have some type of alarm set up because he follows
up on my posts obsessively usually within less than an hour after
I send them off--day and night.  That's an extreme obsession or someone
being paid.  The other thing is that he doesn't crosspost in general
to the relevant groups--for example he'll take out the texas groups on
the thread in Texas to stay on secure turf meaning he's very insecure
and quite afraid of being flamed.  So flame away--just crosspost the
shit out of him.

  He's worth his weight in gold--seriously--I almost feel like I should
be paying him.

  I'm way behind in email and life in general so excuse time lags.
Didn't want to let the Austin thing slip.

Hacks,

   None of us have thin skins, but, as I have probably lost more
accounts than anyone for using language far less offensive than this
post by Rich Tietjens, I am starting to grow more angry at this
double-standard that exists.

   Steve has mentioned that Sam is either being paid to flame him on
USENET, or that he is alerted to Steve's posts, for every time Steve
posts, we have determined, Sam begins posting within 10 minutes to an
hour.  This has been going on for months, and indicates that our
opponents have some kind of organization to flame any Freedom Knight no
matter what they post, in an effort to discourage follow-ups from
newbies or lurkers.

   Tietjens can say whatever he wants--he is one of the biggest assholes
on USENET.  However, I am growing tired of seeing these cabal flame
artists getting away with what they are doing.  Therefore, lets not
hesitate to flame Tietjens, Guy Polis and Sam whenever we see them
flaming a Freedom Knight, and always stand up for each other no matter
what, so that for every flame they make, we flame back--but in a
scolding way, so that we stay above personal attacks.

   I send this post along to you all.  There is no reason on earth for

That's the easiest way to prevent most attacks since the passwords are
unprotected in transit with telnet.

Folks, computer security is an oxymoron.  Kind of like "military
intelligence" or "government help". It does not exist.

If one tries hard enough they will get there.

And, if one wants to read the lists' email, they can do it by breaking
into one of the readers' computers or their relay hosts, not necessarily
into pgh.org. So security of pgh.org is an integral thing.

In fact, I have written software that supports a PGP-encrypted 
mailing list -- messages there go encrypted by the list's public key,
and get sent out encrypted by the individual users' keys. This is somewhat
more secure.

But it may be an overkill in this case.

Dave may be too busy to even read his email.

I am still interested in seeing what this berolist is, also,
since it is already available here at localweb.com

You may be right, because the only ones who would try to

Henrietta has been around for a long time, and I think
she is about 56 or 57 now.

But Steve would still fuck her, since she is friendly,
right Steve? {;-)

Her being called a kook is a misnomer, since she has
argued with us for years.

BTW, are we the kooks, or are they?

Eh? "Noun" is a superset of "derogatory term".

Hi Hacks ...

Tend to agree with the idea that the list should be PGP'd.
Once we start any kind of "attacks", the law enforcement
people will start trying to locate us.  It has happened to
me before, and we fully expect it to happen again. 

Complainers love to call the police.  Many of them wish

Lots of people of all kinds love to call the police.

The move to pgp-ing the list would involve

1) installing software for the list
2) installing pgp for every member
3) training every member (not necessarily a trivial task)
4) members entering passphrases (mine is rather lengthy) every time
they see a message

There is a real cost to all this (esp. 4), especially visible to the
members who get paid hourly.

Is it worth it?

I would rather establish a separate list for high security discussions.

Eg, bullshitting about relative merits of AK vs an AR-15 should not
be pgp-ed.

Stuff which, if disclosed, would cause trouble for list members,
should be sent through a high security mailing list. (and then 
perhaps you would not want to see me on it, which means you would
not trust my pgp mailing list program)

Then again, human potential to make errors would make it worthless.
To be secure, every list member should be an accurate and paranoid
person, which is not the case here.

Well, then you shouldn't want PGP. That is the only way they

This is hard to do, and not worth it. It's better to tell them the
truth, because they won't believe you are telling it, and it's 
damn funny when they realize you -were-.

I do not want to know about any -attack-. I am a man of peace, as 
some of you know. 

I'm not going to stop one either (that would be counter-attacking
which is still an attack).

I do not much worry about PGP when I am not breaking any Law.

Private passwords are always transfered by telephone conversation
of FAXed, as any encryption can be broken and the Internet itself
is not that secure.

But really, the cabal has not even heard of the "hacks list" yet?

Has anybody seen it referred to anywhere out there?

No problem.  I am very experienced at dealing with police.
The first thing I tell them is that I am a Criminal Lawyer,
and instantly they stop asking me questions and start answering
leading questions.  See, cops are use to being cross examined 
on the stand.

I am not sure that that type of vertical integration is possible
here, since each unit must be able to communicate with each other.

In a military or business chain of command, there are both line
and staff people, and they perform different functions.  And the
requirement is usually that the lower units go through the intermediary
ones before comminicating with the Commander (CEO in Business).

I studied the chain of command in the Army and then in business
school, and it really is not applicable to a group of hacks.  Each
hack is here because of his own internal discipline, and he comprises
an individual unit.  Inter-operative coordinatin is done on a voluntary
basis, and should be done freely.

But if you want to be wise, we should test it and then
try to SELL it to the Government.  If it is good enough,
we can contract it out to the Pentagon and other Gov't
units for a fee, that is *with* operators.

C
C++
Java
Java Scripting
Perl
XML
Visual Basic

Thoise are the attack weapons of the present, and we must have
a proficiency in the use of those tools.

Unfortunately, I am a COBOL programmer, and that language
corrupted my thinking about object oriented languages.

Dave, 

Every reader can create a special key for list reading purpose, of
course with passphrases. The addresses in keys can be arbitrary, like
snowwhite@sodomy.org.

Then we can exchange keys so that everyone has everyone's secret key
(but NOT the passphrases).

I see no way how readers can be identified unless they themselves
disclose which passphrase they know.

``Ah, officer, I have these secret keys all right, but I have no
access to the passphrases...''

I'm busy on 30 mg of something else... something green.  Last time I was in

Association slanders are another tool of those who believe an ad hominem

There will never be a clean smelling room; decay is essential also, and we
should not fear death as it is only a conclusion and not a goal (e.g. we
should not be fooled into teleological interpretation).

We should make USENET a place where no opinion is taboo, no action is
verboten, and there is no fear - really FREE communication between people,

COBOL is excellent.  Someday the world will realize how important it is to
make COBOL the new standard for the Internet (ok, ok, I'm lying).

Selling these tools to the gov't is an interesting idea, but I think they
can develop them if they want - if you want to develop them, put them on
the net, and then sell SOLUTIONS, you get the good Judeo-Christian

They're trying to write us off by association.  Same way people say: "Those

are goddamn homosexuals"; "Those people are scum."  The moralism of those
statements and its failure is evident in the lyrical difference between

Well said.  As tempting as it is to KO these folks they are slaves to their
own pain as well, and we are fighting a war for public relations - to look
at them and assume they are the objective creates a polemic from which we
will not awaken, upon which observing the world will turn and write both
groups off the page.  Planning a logical attack in which we both provide
better plans consistently, are not stirred by the largely ad-hominem
messages of the T.I.N.C.L. folks, and at the same time spur them to reveal
the illogicality of their positions will make us more powerful; otherwise,
we are only more people who believe the war will never end.  Hope is a
weapon and we are its vanguard.

Remember the original Star Trek?  When the crew of the enterprise
teleported into a world where they were their opposites?  "It is
easier for a civilized man to appear to be a barbarian, than for the
barbarians to do likewise".

So what would happen if all of the "Kooks" suddenly started talking 
like the Cabal? If Dr G. started being civil (by their standard of
civil)? 

I predict that the Cabal would become more and more like the Kooks,
due to a facet of animalistic human nature that keeps dynamic
opposites in place. 

It would be an interesting experiment.

Hi Dr. G...

This means my work-dialup might get canned.

Damn.  Sure could use access to that MSN 
account, or if there's no numbers in my
area, a throwaway CIS account would be
superly-nice.  They've for sure got some
dial-ins on this side of the world, and
my scripts, etc. to login through them
are already working.

84. Re: NewsAgent Marketing Plan Suggestions.
"HipCrime International, unLtd." <hipcrime@mobsters.com> on Sat, 9 May 1998 08:30:06 +0530 (headers)

Hi S.P...

To begin with, NewsAgent is completely mine.

Wrote the code all alone.  Got help only by
asking questions of the right people (i.e.
Dave Hayes and Dimitri Vulis).

Your suggestions make sense, just not sure
how it'd be possible for me to collect the
money.  You see, my residence is NOT in the
USSA, and won't ever be.

Don't think people would be willing to pay
for something in foreign currency, or to
send money orders to far-away countries.
Do you?

Collections are my real problem.  Coding,
distribution, support, etc. are easy for me.

Right now, the NewsAgent interface is super
simple to use.  Did you download it?  

All you have to is enter a newsServer name, 
a newsGroup name (possibly with wildcards),
a port number, then fill out a form for what
you want to post.  Now click the button.  At
that point, NewsAgent will post your message
and cancel EVERYTHING else.

Don't you think it should be a little more
sophisticated?  Like maybe some sort of
conditional cancelling?  By applying rules
to the headers, like maybe a list of addrs
that are killed, subject/organizations too.

Other ideas on this are welcome.

Anyway, if you want to make a go of this
product, your help would be appreciated.

   ... HipCrime

P.S.  still don't know about IRS Agent,
      or how to get in touch.  Is that
      the same person as APL?  APL sent
      me a long list from a newsServer
      scan, but not sure how to use that
      info, and haven't gotten a response.

Hi S.P...

Sure would like to find IRS, to get some server
info and help.

CompuServe can divulge my info if they want to,
because first, that was my employer's account,
and second, my residence is NOT in the USSA.

Don't think Lewis, Skirvie, or any of them'll
go all the way to Asia, just to find me.

Can make throwaway accounts here, like you can
in the USSA.  Sure do wish DR. G. would setup
a tossable CIS account for me to use over here.
He said he might be doing that soon (i.e. after
the MSN one gets shut down).

  Well--it's certainly an important one to resolve.  Let's

I sort of encouraged him to send a few posts that
way.  It wouldn't surprise me if it wasn't John that
posted it--you've got that Star Traveler Too, etc.

regardless of what group is involved.

  By the way there are some good potential

  Could be--but Grubor was never Dr. Fomin--in fact that tends

That makes me more concerned actually.

  True--but remember the relationship you have with John is
fairly new.  Mine goes back quite a few years through quite
a few battles.  I stand by friends through thick and thin and
wouldn't give him up for fame, power, or glory (maybe for

unlimited choice of pussy but I doubt it).

  Very true.  Which is why he can always be a guage of free
speech.  We don't want to allow others to control anothers
pashions online regardless of what they might be.


>as the cabal constantly baits him about his difficulties in the past.

  Yes--but reflects poorly on them not him (and also the readers
that it affects).  You see while I'm concerned with victory and am
willing to make tradeoffs and concessions to achieve that I'd rather
loose that win via abandoning certain concepts.  For example, if
John did his time in jail that means he's got a free slate in this
country and I've contempt for those who bring it up.  Rather than
go on the defensive we need to point out the lack of moral fiber
of those who keep bringing it up rather than discuss issues.  


>Dr. G should consider retiring from USENET for a time, and focusing

true.  

  Yes--but the past is the past and what matters is what one is now
and what one has the potential to become.  I imagine because
of his past (serving time must be a nightmare) that he's got some
type of post tramatic stress to cope with and that usenet helps
a great deal.

  What area are you looking for?  Of all
the dial-up accounts I've tried MSN is by

Nobody meant to forge you, as SP is thought to be a public
name, just like kibo or Dr. Fomin.  It was probably one of my
kids, or maybe one of the hacks.

It was not a forgery at the usenet address since anybody is
allowed to say anything there.

In reality, if they did not use your sp@pgh.org address, then
it is no "forgery."  ANYTHING is permitted at the anon address,

Let's just get the fucking programs to work before we start
thinking what we can do with them.

So far, I have tested Stalingrad and NewsAgent and neither of
them worked.  I have not tested Brest because I have no instruction
for loading or commands.

Hi Dr. G...

You keep saying NewsAgent doesn't work.
Please be specific about what it does,
and it'll be my pleasure to help you
figure out what the problem is.

When you issue the RUN \NewsAgent\NewsAgent

Hi Dr. G ...

You said the last one didn't work?
What happened?  It's running fine
from my machine, but remember that
this is a very young program, so
you can expect a few problems.

Once you download all the files,
make sure that the DLLs got put
in the \Windows\System directory.
There'll be a bunch of new files
by the name of SC*.DLL.  ALso,
make sure that NewsAgent.exe
went into a \NewsAgent folder.

Let me know if it won't run for you.

  You may be right but they've had a powerful influence
offline on the spam issue (which gives them the=20

reader of newspapers and mags. is not well versed
on what is going on and presently the media
swallows the cabal party line--this has an influence
especially on legislation in this area that will no

  In terms of using the porn weapon to get ISPs

an extremely powerful ally--they have a standard
and mindless knee jerk reaction to porn
especially if given the keywords 'kiddie porn'.

S.P.,

Thanks for excellent comments.  You have hit on some issues here I find
should be addressed: that we not sell each other out (re: PGH.ORG post),
and that we treat each other with respect (re: HipCrime!).  I admit I have
been slack in this regard, in that I fire off 50 emails one day and the
next am overwhelmed.  Right now I'm mid-project and can't imagine tackling
this load.

However, I think rumination on valuable ideas does not necessarily produce
a tangible product at first - so let me (for now) only thank you and the
other members of this list for your heartfelt and invaluable contributions.

Sinsemilla,
SRP

I am a week or so away from having my backup machine working - I try to
keep this one with as clean a DLL profile as possible, considering the shit
it has to run.  Once I have that up and running I'm up for some kind of
action, although my cancels will probably be limited to a strike against
the fundaments of the capitalist system - striking down the porn groups
that pay for net traffic with the millions of sheep who masturbate.

Hi again Spin ...

Thanks for the appropriate response.
Yes, with a program as young as NewsAgent,
there's bound to be problems.  Will say again:

  It would be my pleasure to help anybody
  get this working on their machine.

Cabal newsflashes, messages to F-K list from

all serve to confirm that NewsAgent works.

kiddie porn is a bad thing, and therefore one can
make money on eliminating it.

what I want to do is to start marketing attack software
and to use it against some kiddie porn sights.  then, it
will gain credibility for other uses.

I do not want to sell the software, but sell the software
PLUS the operators, all of whom will remain unknown.

Tell that Compuserve guy that I did the cancels.
I want them to blame everything on me.

It has LONG been believed by the masses that DOS attacks
are illegal, and after examining the Federal Law at length,
the only illegality arises when it is a government computer.

ANY private computers can be attacked, and there is NO
criminal prohibition whatsoever in the Federal Law.

If that becomes so, then we will consider the prerogatives

is a very small part of the world, and most people on the

But remember, poitics on Usenet has nothing to do with politics in the

criticism is what makes one stronger, because it is the only way
to point out the bugs.  but you misinterpret "criticism" as far as
NewsAgent is concerned.  It just did not work on my system.  The SOP
for the installation is the flaw, and not the program itself.

The mission is to eliminate Chris Lewis's cancels FIRST, and

and that is what I want it returned to.

We lost Viet-Nam because of the stupid politics

Well, it looks like somebody is currently running it on MSN.

All I ever got is "cannot find file NewsAgent\NewsAgent.exe or 
one of it's components."  The program did not install.

First of all, any download SOP must first specify a desktop
folder for the file to be downloaded TO.  Then, we need some
PATH names to check in DOS.

"HipCrime International, unLtd." <hipcrime@mobsters.com> on Sun, 10 May 1998 16:53:57 +0530 (headers)

Hi S.P...

NewsAgent is a pretty generic name.  My understanding
of TradeMark rules, is that you can't stake a claim on
simple generic terms.  But you can put your name in front
of it and then trademark the whole combination.  

Talked to a lawyer about that, back in the ActiveAgent
days.  There's actually two companies who have conflicting
trademarks on that name, and're embroiled in a court fight
with each other.  But, by calling my program HipCrime's
ActiveAgent, that issue was avoided.  By putting my name
in front of it (everywhere, everytime) it serves to make
a distinction between my AA and their AA.

This is a stupid little technicality of the rules, but
several lawyers have assured me that's the case.

So, my plan was to stick with the name HipCrime's NewsAgent,
at least until some problem rears its ugly head which makes
me think otherwise.  Besides, NewsAgent spawns off little
threads called CancelAgents (which helps out with the line
about "generic" terms).

ActiveAgent is like that.  It spawns off ActiveCrawlers,
ActiveMailers, ActiveScanners, ActiveFilters, etc.  All of
them are "HipCrime's", of course.  Part of the name thing.

Hi S.P...

Yep, plan to take my time to get this thing ready.

Been coding today, and've added a selective cancel
capability, that lets you cancel on the basis of
the From, Subject, Org, or Path header contents.
Or, you can still just cancel everything.

Also added lots of new options, like being able
to turn the Warning Article posting off, control
the "X-Archive: No" headers, etc.  A few little
details.

Also worked out the issue with the XHDR command,
so that it can handle big spools like N.A.N-A.E.

Next step is to write some documentation.  Once
there's a cookbook for this thing, then it'll be
ready for the public.  It ain't fancy, but it'll
definitely do the job.

Hi Hacks ...

The enhancement of NewsAgent continues.
V0.05 is at the usual URL now, which is
(just in case you forgot):

http://geocities.com/Heartland/Flats/3177/NewsAgent.zip
http://geocities.com/Heartland/Flats/3177/SuperCede.zip

This model has lots of new features,
including (but not limited to) selective
cancelling, based on the contents of
either the From, Subject, Organization,
or Path.

You can also control other headers
better.  Like X-No-Archive, etc.

Dr. G, what happens when you run the
NewsAgent?  Try to find the file
NewsAgent.exe on your C drive with the
Windows Explorer.  Double Click it.

Hi Dr. G...

Nope, you can't run NewsAgent with
anything except for Windows95/NT.

Prior to running it, you should
use your Dial Up Networking, and
establish a PPP (TCP/IP) connection
to your dialup server (i.e. MSN).

After that, run the NewsAgent.exe
file.  Good luck.

Hi Dr. G...

The NewsAgent.zip file should extract
its files to \NewsAgent on your C drive.
When you run WinZIP, it'll ask you where
you want to put the files.  

They should want to go to that directory
automatically, but maybe your WinZIP
version doesn't support that.

Either way, you need to extract the
NewsAgent.zip file into a \NewsAgent
in the root directory of drive C.

Also, you need to extract the SuperCede.zip
file into \Windows\System (which it should
want to do automatically, but again, maybe
that doesn't work on your machine).

You can use the Explorer to determine
exactly where the files did get extracted
to?

Hi Steve ...

All these weird little Texas newsgroups 
seem to have become a haven for censors.

One of my real reasons for writing the
NewsAgent was to censor the censors.
Fighting fire with fire.

Would cancel-out that austin.config
group tonight (just to further my
debugging), but don't have a dialup
to use.

Will try to locate a public site,
and run in there for a couple of
hours tomorrow.  Won't block the
group for long, but will destroy
all existing threads.  It's a start.

Anybody else want to take a shot
at running this thing?

I downloaded and unzippewd the new NewsAgent,
but it does not create any C:\NewsAgent\NewsAgent.exe
file.

Doing a find for that file, I get nothing.

I have both the NewsAgent.zip and the 
Supercedeus.zip both in a folder on the
desktop.

I do not know if NewsAgent or Brest is running
on MSN right now.  All I know is that it says
"your account can not be accessed" and that means
somebody is already on it.  It could be Dimitri 
in NYC or goat in Austin or igor, it matters not.

How about we create a C:\NewsAgent file and
do the unzipping in that?

Like, I am going to try to put the two zip files in there
and unzip them again.

  Yes--Agent is excellent for that.  I add an approved line

  To add the Approved: header as well as the Control:

add:

Hi Dr. G ...

When you run WinZIP to unzip the NewsAgent.zip
file, where does it want to put the files?

In that ZIP archive, there are two (2) files:

	NewsAgent.dll
	NewsAgent.exe

Sure seems strange that you're not seeing
these two files.  Could it be some weirdness
with WinZip?  What version are you running?

It is not the winzip but the dll's that it can not find.

I think the problem is with superCede.

I tried this on two different computers and it did
not install correctly on either.

I started with a C:\NewsAgent folder with both
the zipped filed in it for a start.

Here is our list of open NNTP servers
which was provided by scumhater a while back

From: Neil <neil@njmcov.demon.co.uk>
Newsgroups: news.admin.net-abuse.misc
Date: Tue, 29 Apr 1997 08:02:55 
Organization: None

Hi,

I got this list off the web a few months ago, I'm not sure how accurate 
it is, but if you're looking for a free news server then this would be a 
good place to start.


Some of the servers below don't allow posting, some have restricted 
groups, etc.

If a server doesn't have the sex groups and say you wanted to send a few 
hundred articles to alt.sex or alt.binaries.pictures.erotica.* according 
to the RFCs all you have to do is post the article to a group which IS 
on the server and crosspost to the rest of the groups, this way the 
message will still propogate around the net and appear on servers which 
do provide the additional groups.

Hope this helps :

Almost all the public access NNTP servers I know about

(200 means posting allowed; 201 means no posting)

I knew you would understand.  Without a clear goal, we're in the bush
wondering who we can shoot at - and clearly we want to shoot.  More
lucidly, however, we want our objectives, and shooting is only part of
that.  Viet Nam was a travesty for the Americans and something no DJ will
ever forget as long as there are shattered lives thirty years later to call
in to the only voice they can hear and tell their story.  I was not there,
but those who have touched me were - and they hurt today and every day for
it.  One of the fundamentals of the ANUS maniphisto is to fuck all power:
	<http://www.anus.com/anus/maniphisto.html>

...and to have compassion for those wounded by power and control and
authority and gOD and other lies.

I don't think they're running NewsAgent.  See earlier plans.

May be your version of WinZip?  I know that software is controlled by a
tribal entity.

Yeah, he said so in the emails - I don't like the root level installs and
so won't do it on this machine, but on my other box, sure.  From what I can
tell there are two parts:

(1) The Newsagent file, in C:\NewsAgent

(2) The Dynamic Linked Librariers, in C:\Windows\System

That's a simplistic version of HipCrime's plan but maybe it bears repeating
in another format.  Let me know if it works!

To live there is to love it but also to know its limitations.  We've all

rednecks or local law enforcement.  But it is a great place - and it should
be free!

56k will still only bomb at 33k, so there is not much difference.

GOOD!  I sure would like to take out Chris Lewis for good,
and I will provide the dial-ups to do it with.

And I still want to try that Brest.

I got NewsAgent working today and will be using
it on the list of open NNTP servers.

160. NewsAgent/NNTP problem
"Dr.G" <drg@pgh.org> on Mon, 11 May 1998 06:54:08 -0400 (EDT) (headers)


I have been working all night trying to get this newsAgent
to work on any of those public access NNTP servers, and I 
keep getting the same responses, i.e.,

480 Authentication Required
LIST ACTIVE failed
555 NewsSocket GetLine -- connection lost.

Has ANYBODY gotten NewsAgent to work on ANY of those
hundreds of NNTP servers on that list?  You all got that
list yesterday from the sysop/micron address.

162. HipCrime's NewsAgent v0.07
"HipCrime International, unLtd." <hipcrime@mobsters.com> on Mon, 11 May 1998 18:45:03 +0530 (headers)

Hi Hacks ...

Put in some testing time in at a CyberCafe'
this afternoon, and really made some progress.

Problems with selective cancelling are fixed,
and a couple of new search options were added.

V0.07 can "flood" the newsgroup, by posting and
reposting the same message every time around the
cancelling loop.  This is sort of like mailbombs
or listbombs.  Group bombing.

It also has the ability to resurrect the article
(that it posted prior to cancelling), in the
event that somebody else cancels it.  

Seems like CyberCafes (and other public web
browsing sites) are a good bet for running it.
You can use their dialup's NewsServer, so 
posting will be allowed and all the groups will 
be carried.

Tried tons of servers off that list, but NONE
of them allowed me to post anything.  Just as
with SMTP, the openness of servers has almost
vanished.  Probably something about "abuse".

Since Dr. G. had so much trouble with the ZIP
file, have decided to switch to a self extract
EXE file.  My problem with this, is that the
GeoCities FTP server doesn't allow EXE files.

Will create some different free space, that
will allow EXEs, and'll send out the new URLs
soon.  Meanwhile, you can still download the
ZIPs files for HipCrime's NewsAgent v0.07 in
the usual locations:

http://geocities.com/Heartland/Flats/3177/SuperCede.zip
http://geocities.com/Heartland/Flats/3177/NewsAgent.zip

   ... HipCrime

P.S. does anybody know if this afternoon's
     testing resulted in any cancelling?

     Tried to issue cancels in the 
     following groups:

		alt.2600
		alt.spam
		alt.slack
		alt.cypherpunks
		alt.fan.karl-malden.nose

		austin.internet
		austin.usenet.config
		dfw.internet.providers
		houston.internet.providers

		news.admin.net-abuse.email
		news.admin.net-abuse.usenet

P.P.S.  Has anybody heard from A.P.L???
        Sure would like to get some help
        with the "news server scan results" 
        s/he sent me some time back

This was the main message:
480 Authentication Required

And it would always end with:
LIST ACTIVE failed

Hi Dr. G...

Yep, v0.07 should overwrite v0.05, but for
your system, not sure (since you're having
some trouble with directories).

In any case, extract the ZIP file, and just
copy the NewsAgent.exe and .dll files on top
of the directory where you have the older ones.

I bet it is IRSAgent, because APL would not
"confirm or deny" that s/he was IRSagent.

APL only came into existance when IRSAgent went out
of existance.

170. more tests
"HipCrime International, unLtd." <hipcrime@mobsters.com> on Tue, 12 May 1998 06:53:23 +0530 (headers)

Hi Hacks ...

Yesterday's tests were a partial success.
Some discussion in N.A.N.A.*, regarding the
activities of HipCrime's NewsAgent, shows
that the cancels went out.  

Probably Dave the Resurrector brought the 
articles back, which doesn't matter really,
since NewsAgent loops around, cancelling
forever.  Just didn't have the time to 
leave it running all day, but if somebody
did, my guess is that it would wreak havoc.

Will be running some more today, and wanted
to request a list of groups to be cancelled.
Anybody got any favorites?  Would like to get
a few porn and religious groups in on it this
time.  Any suggestions?  

Sorry to display my ignorance, but don't know
shit about either porn or religion.  (-:

   ... HipCrime

P.S.  has anybody else tried to get it running?

"HipCrime International, unLtd." <hipcrime@mobsters.com> on Tue, 12 May 1998 07:08:45 +0530 (headers)

Hi S.P...

Don't know who/where IRS Agent is, but A.P.L has not
answered my "shout out" on the F-K list, and hasn't
responded to messages directed to any of hir mailboxes.

Real strange, if you ask me.  Sometime about 2 months
ago, A.P.L sent me the results of hir "news server scan",
which is a huge HTML file that lists connection attempts
and possibly sign-on messages from *lots* of NNTP daemons.

At that time, mentioned hir interest in NewsAgent too.
Wanted a copy, when it became available.

Have strolled through that file manually, picking what
looked to be likely targets, but *none* of the servers
in that list did me any good.  The list is very long
however, and so it isn't possible to do any exhaustive
research.  Might have to write a special program to do it.

Easier would be if we could raise IRS Agent and/or A.P.L.

If the point is to make changes on USENET then avoiding the cabal, at least
initially, is the best bet.  Being effective is the most important goal.
If the cabal takes attention of and tries to attack porn being cancelled
then hitting their groups or sending them lots of email might become
effective.

That is not a good idea, imho, because due to the illegal/semilegal

"Ric G." <ricardo@paranoia.com> on Mon, 11 May 1998 23:35:37 -0500 (CDT) (headers)

Sounds pretty good, though I'd probably work on PR that equates the
Internet organization referred to as "The Cabal" as being the defenders
of kiddie porn.  Whatever group comes forward to cancel the kiddie
porn (with an innocuous name like "The Net Protectors" or a more
exciting one like "Hackers for Child Protection") could claim that
their sole mission is to stop the kiddie porn that "The Cabal" is
protecting.  With something like that as the core issue, the rest of
the PR can consist of talking about the attack on kiddie porn and 
"The Cabal".  If successful, the media will take out the Cabal and
associate them with kiddie porn and so our job is done.  At the
same time this looks like time for a Blitzkrieg in which every
weapon should be deployed.

Suggested tools:
1. Newsgroup cancels
2. Newsgroups floods (e.g. poetry)
3. Mass email to targets
4. Mass email distributed to USENET posted to propagate PR
5. Directed email to newspaper contacts (I saw a list of press contacts on
   one media website)
6. PR posted on various newsgroups (except for n.a.* groups)

The n.a.* groups should be monitored but not attacked until they realize
what's up.  Then the group doing it could put out a press release saying
that they've just attacked the den of child pornographers on their own
turf with the intent to disrupt their illegal trade.

All of these are just suggestions for a possible scenario.  As long as you
have a comprehensive plan I'm confident that you'll accomplish something
significant.  I've still got a few months on a rough contract that leaves
me without enough time to contribute much to what's needed but am in full
support.

Let me bring you up to date, S.P.  Years ago, this list was
called the UFC (UseNet Freedom Council) and neither wireinfo
or IRSAgent were aboard yet.  After they came aboard, since they
had been approved by Steve, I changed the name of the list to
the "meow brigade."  IRSAgent was going by "fluffy" then, and that
is why I used the "meow brigade" name.

As it turned out, the name "meow brigade" was being used
by somebody else, and Dr. Jai asked be why we used the name.
As I told him at the time, it was because of IRSAgent/fluffy
that we had changed the name.

In reality, it did not make much sense, so I changed the name
to what we really are/or shall become, and that is hacks.

I believe IRSAgent and ALP both used grendl9@neptune.net,
and that is why I believe they are the same entity.  Whether

If that can be done, let's DO IT.
All we need is one server at a time to run
NewsAgent from.  Make the first target ALL
of Chris Lewis's Articles, then move to
Tim Skirvin and J.D. Falk.

NewsAgent os no good without an open NNTP server, so we must find one.
Of all the Hundreds Of Thousands of news servers out there, we must
be able to find some open ones.

What makes you think that Dimitri tried to contact IRSAgent?

He did not mention that to me, and we talked on the

I am saying I think they are the same entity, but I am not 100%

s/he has always been on good terms with me.

That is certainly possible, but not probable.
Maybe APL does not want to admit to being IRSAgent.

Like, why does APL say s/he will neither confirm

I will write to APL but I will not force him/her to 
confirm or deny they are IRSAgent.  As you know, I deal

Maybe the entity who existed as IRSAgent does not want to admit
that he was the Agent.  Remember, IRSAgent onll existed in a
hotmail address and could not be traced.  APL can be traced
very easily, and if he is IRSAgent, he may not want to admit it.

Instead of just any newsgroups, let's focus the cancels on
Chris Lewis personally.  To do this click on the dropdown arrow
in NewsAgent where it says "Cancel Everything" and replace it
with "from header."  The word "equals" then appears on the right side,
and you insert "clewis@ferret.ocunix.on.ca" on the next line.

With the above, then go to any newsgroup that Lewis frequents, and it
should cancel all HIS Articles.

The NEXT step is to develop software to disengage CancelMoose!
Anybody know how to do that?

Instead of using "equals", use "contains" and "clewis",
so that if he's munging, you'll still cancel him.

"HipCrime International, unLtd." <hipcrime@mobsters.com> on Tue, 12 May 1998 21:30:14 +0530 (headers)

Hi Hacks ...

You can download HipCrime's NewsAgent v0.07 with
these:

http://members.tripod.com/~NewsAgent/SuperCede.exe
http://members.tripod.com/~NewsAgent/NewsAgent007.exe

The first file (SuperCede.exe) is the runtime libraries
that you'll need.  Download it, run it, and let it put
the ten (10) DLL files where it wants to (i.e. it will
copy them into C:\Windows\System).

The second file (NewsAgent007.exe) is the program itself.
Download it, run it, and again, let it put the files where
it wants to (i.e. it'll create a folder called C:\NewsAgent,
and'll put two files in there, NewsAgent.exe and NewsAgent.dll).

Once you've completed these two steps, you're ready to go.
To run HipCrime's NewsAgent, hit the Start button, pick Run
from the fly-up menu, and enter this command:

	c:\NewsAgent\NewsAgent

Good Luck, and happy cancelling.

   ... HipCrime

Hi Hacks ...

Would've cancelled some porn today, but news.vsnl.net.in
doesn't carry a single alt.binaries.pictures.* newsgroup.
None of them.  Porno is pretty taboo in India, so maybe
that's why.  In any case, somebody else will have to get
the porno groups.

   ... HipCrime

P.S.  does HACKS@PGH.ORG reflect messages to the whole
      list?  It'd make it easier to send, than to this

Falk and Lewis are probably still cleaning megabytes of bouncin' binaries

yes, but a search for clewis will not yield

It may be better to use Chris +Lewis, right?
That does use the boolean arguments, does it not?

I'm just tired, period, and I need a giant spliff.  Doctor!  Do you have my

Much better.  I agree: PORN is what funds the USENET machine, and
destroying it will, ahem, "crush the state" in a microcosm by eliminating
the economic viability of USENET.  It will probably invoke the fastest
results.

I also say we target high-profile political groups and those who will
squeal the loudest - especially righteous morons, of which there are more
in alt.rush-limbaugh than the news admin geek.* groups.

Chris Lewis, like all humans, is clearly not boolean.  I do laugh out loud

"HipCrime International, unLtd." <hipcrime@mobsters.com> on Tue, 12 May 1998 23:12:02 +0530 (headers)

Hi Dr. G...

Using "clewis" with a search type of "contains"
WILL match "clewis@ferret.ocunix.on.ca", but
"equals" will not.  The search matches the full
contents of the header, so for that address, you
could also use "equals" and "<clewis@ferret.ocunix.on.ca>"
but "contains" is less stringent.

Also, boolean operators are NOT supported.  
The search does only simple string matches.
You know, string "equals" argument, or string
"contains" argument, or "starts with" or "ends
with", or even "lacks" (i.e. the header in 
question does NOT contain the given string).

He is organizing a campaign to mail-bomb Chris Caputo,

I have contacted her and am waiting for a response.

I have also contacted wireinfo/iMp who I will be adding
to the list as soon as he responds.

iMp told me that Miss April left her husband and moved in
with him.  IRSAgent and wireinfo were together when we first
met them a couple of years ago, remember, Steve.

could it be that Miss April is APL/Binary Bomber?

I remember IRSAgent saying in the past that the binary
bomber war a female and I know that IRSAgent is APL now.

SP, what do you think of APL if she is also IRS Agent?

post fawning compliments and claims to be writing a biography of the

puppet account in a long time.  It's very interesting that Jai is now
as much as admitting that he was responsible for the Luxmee account,
since he's the only one complaining about the "forgeries".  If there
were a real Luxmee, surely that person would be the one complaining,
not Jai.

I'm not sure that forging the address of a disused sock puppet account

Dr. G, on the old list, IRS Agent wrote to me regarding Enlow's
request.  Mike Enlow wanted to hire the Binary Bomber to spam USENET, so
as to create and endless market for the UCE, a loop, if you will.

I approached IRS Agent, and the reply I recieved, in substance, was: "I
have communicated the request to the Binary Bomber, and SHE feels that
the there are not enough open news servers at this time" to do what
Enlow asked.

Especially if the Binary Bomber can inform us as to where the open
nntp's and proxies are.  I want to run HipCrime's NewsAgent and blast
the kiddie porn groups BIG TIME.  However, my ISP might charge me $200
for the priviledge to do so, after closing my dial-up throwaway account.

Dr. G, the more resources we have to work with, the more easily we can
get the info we need--so I hope APL/IRS/Binary Bomber will PLEASE join
this list--even anonymously, so that we can get this information.

Otherwise, I intend to blast USENET from seperate dial-ups, and will
leave NewsAgent running all night until the account is closed.  But I
would prefer to do the work through an open or hijacked server, as I can
cancel from various State of Texas computers which I have access to, but
those cancels will have to be done during the day.

217. How to Identify IRS Agent/APL--IRS had the only working copy of the UCE

My instinct tells me, HipCrime, that IRS Agent was the boyfriend of
APL.  I don't know, thought.  I do know that IRS Agent wrote me that
he/she was older, perhaps mid-late 30's or more.  However, as long as
whoever claims they are IRS Agent can produce a working copy of Enlow's
UCE cancelbot, then we can be sure that is IRS Agent, as only IRS and/or
the Binary Bomber were beta testing it on USENET at alt.slack back in
October.

I believe that it is only important that IRS Agent get on the list and
help, and it does not matter that anyone even know, as Dr. G can perhaps
ask, via private email, for proof of a working UCE as a sure way to id
IRS.

Yes, IRS Agent was brilliant, and new every hiding place.  I hope, Dr.
G, that IRS and you can hook up, as I want to cancel out the kiddie porn
groups from an open server somewhere, rather than on a dialup.

If APL is IRS, then I misjudged APL, and will apologize to APL, if this
is so.  If IRS is APL, Dr. G, then APL must have disbelieved my ability
to get the two serial numbers from Mike Enlow, and was baiting me to get
off my butt and deliver as I promised.

Enlow was very slow to respond, as he was still working out the problems
with his bot, but APL's goading did make me mad enough to pressure (beg)
Mike to give me the serial numbers and get them to IRS as I promised,
so, Dr. G, I can only "tip my hat" to APL, for so correctly manipulating
me into performing as I promised.  Apparently, IRS Agent is a master
manipulator, and would be a valuable addition to the list.

I hope that APL/IRS will consider joining the list.  Please forward this
to IRS/APL.

And that is exactly why I think that IRS Agent is a female.  The "she"

Ther is no sense in canceling kiddie porn articles.  You should keep your
focus on people, and not articles or newsgroups.  We must all try and
cancel all of Chris Lewis, and then move on to Skirvin, Falk, Lawrence,
Vixie, SPUTUM, etc.

Let's let the kiddie porn go untilwe get some CASH for canceling it.
And the way we attack child porn is to attack the ISPs, and not the
newsgroups that it is in.

However, my ISP might charge me $200

Look, you use a dial-up for that purpose only.  After that, everything is
by telnet or remote NewsAgent.  Never expose a dial-up to any possibility
of complaints.

I am in touch with APL now.  I am not going to ask him/her if they
are IRS Agent because that is a dead name, and a dead issue, and I
already know that she is, by examining past correspondence. I have asked
her (we shall assume it is female for the time being)

Why would anybody want to claim that they "are" IRS Agent?  I know that 
IRSAgent wrote from APL's address, so what you say could be true.  But it
is more likely that APL is the female, and the boyfriend is
wireinfo/iMplant.

All I am interested in are the open NNTP servers, so we can get
NewsAgent working.  Enlow's software is no longer relevant, it seems.

I am working on that now.  I am in touch with APL and
wireinfo.

Why do you want to cancel out the kiddie porn so bad.  Hell, we can get
money for doing that, so why do it for free.

I think we need a list of people to cancel, instead of
a list of newsgroups.

That sounds like a reasonable assessment.  The only thing I KNOW at this
point is that IRS Agent wrote to me in the past from APL's neptune.net
ISP and therefore they must be the same entity, or a" significant other"
of the same party.

So she was effective, it seems.

Remember, IRS Agent was nothing but a hotmail address, and the only

One step at a time.  I first want to get the NNTP servers.
APL may not want to get on the list yet.  I have just started
communicating with her yesterday, and I am still waiting for
wireinfo to respond.  

Steve, do you remember that wireinfo and IRS Agent were always
together when they first joined up with us in 1996?

All of this takes the focus off our main enemy, Chris Lewis.
Rush Limbaugh is really a nobody on usenet, and I do not think

I don't know.  Most of the spammers that I know went out of business

Dave is the only real "knight," and I think we should concentrate

I agree.  With the bread and butter gone the little guys will have to
actually differentiate themselves, and the big providers will find an
_across the board_ resistance to rate increases/other bullshit.  Also, help
by mailbombing abuse addresses - the more we fuck up that system, the more
it's likely they all wake up and realize the complainocracy of the "new"
Internet is just costing them money to enforce the worthless ideas of whiners.

Absolutely 100% fuckin' agreed.  Or rather: a meta-plan, and each of us

And it's worthless - taking revenge on one idiot out of millions does no
good.  Ruining his public rep by revealing that he is helping take the
focus away from the real changes to the Internet (people love denial) is a
better course of action.

Remember: think strategically, act tactically.

See, if we would have kept the cancels to Chris Lewis only, then this
would not have happened.  It is not very wise to cancel just any article
in a newsgroup.  We must direct all of this canceling to Chris Lewis
and other "specific" people in the future; not to just newsgroups per se.

Well, that is the ONLY thing I am interested in.
If we can not wipe out Chris Lewis, then we are useless.

Between Lewis cancels, Lewis mailbombs, Lewis DOS attacks
and Lewis employer harassment, we MUST eliminate Chris Lewis.

Nothing else matters till Lewis is down for good.

So far, all of the attacks I have witnessed have only served to
strengthen my belief that the "cabal" grows stronger with each attack,
as Dave says.

> I hinted at it a few weeks ago even.

I have stopped posting to USENET, because I have trigger fingers, and
because I have noted that fighting and flamewars are a bother, and a
waste of my energy.

> I am a man of peace. My goals are not to "remove porn from the net",

No one's goal is to remove porn from the net--it is to force ISPs to act
like common carriers and nothing more.  But probably there is no good
way to accomplish this.

> nor are they to "destroy Chris Lewis",

I also have no desire to destroy Chris Lewis, but I am constantly
overruled by Steve and Dr. G.

No one can grasp them, Dave, because you are obscure in expressing them
on USENET, but here you express a philosophy much akin to Gandhi's, and
many can grasp his simple teachings of peace and goodwill.

> What you folks are doing is pretty amusing to me, but I cannot

If Dave can't do them, then certainly I cannot do them.  I asked for
Dave's opinion.  He has been around much longer than I on USENET, and
has far more insight into these issues than I do.  Therefore, I will
follow Dave's example, and will stop advocating those things.  This
probably means I must be removed from the list, but, Dave's words make
much sense, and I can see that all of the mailbombing, canceling or
floods in the world will not bring a resolution.

That is why I respect you, Dave.  Anyone can see from reading you that
you are in control of yourself.

> I have a lot on my plate right now.

So do I.  I am working on a large website, and seeing a new woman, which
may lead to a serious relationship.

> Besides running my own business, I

Dave, if you ever tour, come to Austin and play Antones.  I saw Stevie
Ray play there many times, and now all kinds of bands are welcome, not
just blues bands.  On Tuesday night, the SCABS play Caribe style music,
and the whole house is packed, so that each band member makes $300, and
there are seven of them.

I have.  I even sent a private email to Sam about help with a spam I
received.  Steve, that guy wrote me a nice reply, and here I thought he
hated my guts.   Dave is right.  Being nice builds bridges.

Dave, these are harsh criticisms, AND THEY ARE ALL TRUE!  I am tired of

249. To the Hacks from SP re: Dave Hayes' comments.
"S.P." <sp@pgh.org> on Fri, 15 May 1998 02:06:16 -0700 (headers)

Hacks,

  Through private email, Dave Hayes has more or less condemned what we
are doing, advocating and discussing.  Because I know that Dave is
right, I can no longer participate on this list.

  We have all fallen into an old trap.  Fortunately, it is easy to
escape the trap once you see the way out.  I just escaped thanks to my
ability to learn from the experiences of others.

  I hope that Spinoza and Ric will understand that this is nothing
personal, but Dave pretty much came down on us for how we are trying to
accomplish our mission.

  In substance, Dave seems to infer, we are really no better than the
"cabal".

  Therefore, it is not right that I be on this list anymore, and, to all
of you, I want to say that this was one of the most interesting lists
around.  But please remove my email from the list when you communicate
to the group.

  Take care,

  SP


250. Dave's Comments
"S.P." <sp@pgh.org> on Fri, 15 May 1998 02:11:29 -0700 (headers)

Dr. G,

  After Dave's scathing attack of us, I feel it best that I move on. 
Please remove my email from the list, and please close my email
addresses.

  After reading Dave's comments about how he could take an ISP off the
net, but that such skill requires temperence, I see now how unfair it
would be to attack ISP employees, to ruin lives, or to bring down an
ISP, as I was allowed to tour one two days ago, and I would not want to
harm the livlihood of these people.

  Thanks for allowing me to have a free email account, but what Dave
said really struck home, and, as he has advised that people be nice and
supportive, that is what I intend to do from now on.

  For me, this has everything to do with trusting the experience of
others.  I am an historian, I am trained to do this.  I will do this.  I
am a man of peace from now on.

  Take care,

  SP

Or in other words: offer a viable alternative, establish an objective, and
in that context if part of what you must do is destroy, let it be a tactic
and not a strategy.

I thought the ISP idea was one of the best.  I also believe the destruction
of porn groups on the Internet is equally viable.  Writing off either for
reasons of pacifism, or non-pacifism, seems to be learning little from
history.

I believe there you are fooled.  Allberry is not real.

But I think that those hoping to change something had better define their
strategic objectives beyond the battlefield, on both sides.

good morning,

Okay guys, we have a split - there's no reason not to take this logically
and figure out where we stand - so far I have seen no real mission
statement from other side of this, and think we should keep up discussion.
I woke from an oddly related dream and think we shouldn't throw out the
keys before we determine what's in the room; S.P., you've contributed a lot
to this list and many of us agree with you; the situation is, however, that
we often need to support multiple tactics at once.  However, the overall
situation needs a GOAL.  If we need another list, then I'm down for that -
there is no reason those people who are of honor who share objectives can't
get along without sudden "withdrawal" and madness of retribution.  Please
drop me a line and let's discuss this.

A very exhausted,

I think we have to focus on making him obsolete.  Otherwise, a fight is all
he and the T.I.N.C.L. folks live for - it makes their insignificant lives
seem important.  Masochism is as common to society as stupidity; there must
be some link, somewhere!

Our mailbombing is gonna be ineffective until we can get some way around
his filters - even reflectors can be easily filtered (grep for Mail
Delivery Subsystem and boot at header level).  His machines are virtual
subsets of the nortel.ca network - which is huge.  To take him out, I think
the only effective policy is a road trip with an M1911-A1, and I don't know
of anyone here who's down for that.  Better to make him look stupid rather
than justifying his hate war against USENET by behaving predictably.

take care,
SRP

I respect Steve as much as you do, but I think we should try to make use of

Ack!  I'm of the passion to go on frequent drug binges, so maybe cut me

The only thing that will make it more secure is unsigned encryption - open
email is insecure.

Right - there are two views about how to accomplish that.
	Viewpoint 1: We beat the obvious targets into the ground until they
surrender (Professional viewpoint: Unlikely.  They are caught in a
sadomasochistic loop of response and reaction.  They enjoy our battling them.)
	Viewpoint 2: We find a better system and implement it over their heads.
Much as USENET now operates as a much more chaos-induced place because of
overabuse by spammers it will operate as chaos once we implement systems
that make more sense for supporting all traffic.

That's a tactical goal; what are our strategic goals?

Dave and S.P. are the guys who got all of USENET including Lewis at el
riled against them in the first place!  It is no big thing, but we're
losing members and focus.

260. To Dr. G, Who Claims I Have No "Expertise".
"S.P." <sp@pgh.org> on Fri, 15 May 1998 22:01:05 -0700 (headers)

Dr. G,

  I could take Lewis out for one week.  My level of expertise is
probably only exceeded by Dave Hayes.  I do not advertise it.  Has
anyone ever seen "I Claudius"?

  I will begin my own personal attacks on Lewis, without your
assistance.  Perhaps when you see what a simple thing it is to do, then
you will remember that there are far bigger issues at stake than taking
Lewis down for the count.

  I announce to the hacks:  Lewis is going down this week, if I have to
work all week at it--and I won't be using any of the rather arcane tools
I have seen discussed here.

  I thank Spinoza forwarding Dr. G's message to me.  After Lewis is
gone, perhaps we can begin doing something more important than taking
this little man off of USENET.  Perhaps we can then bore ourselves by
attacking Tim Skirvin.  Or we can break the very backbone of the net.

  It is well known that I have a trigger finger on the keyboard.  I
believe with Dave Hayes, though, that some of the efforts here to take
"Lewis down" are amusing.

  Dave could wipe out an ISP for a week.  I can wipe out Lewis and
SPUTUM.  When I do, let us see what Dr. G suggest the hacks can do to
return the favor.

  SP
