That time Yahoo number 1... Google site too geeky. How the mighty has fallen.

Everyone starts with Yahoo mail then migrate to Hotmail.

i must have hacked hundreds of hotmail emails by guessing the secret question's answers just to pass time.

during those days one of the " not so good stuff " that I did was experimenting with keylogger software that can silently record everything that you type ( and watch ) and save it in .txt .

Years later the software become more advance it can email the installer the logfile via email at interval time.

I installed it at the office and cybercafe around my place.


suffice to say I discovered that human is actually one scary creature.
