NOTICE: This program was written to further the education of the IBM PC
computer users out there, and was not intended to be used in any
method other than educationally. Any uses other than learning about
Hayes compatible modems are the responsibility of the end user.
=================
Hacking Section
=================
The hacking section options consist of two subchoices, Begin, and Reconfigure.
We will start with Reconfigure.
COM port.............The COM port that your modem is in. Can only be 1 or 2
Hack port............The telephone number of the Long Distance service you wish
to hack on.
Start code...........The code to start hacking with.
Increment............Allows you to set it to add a certain number to the code
to try each time. If 0 is selected, it will be a totally
random code, and if 99 is selected it will increment the
code with a random number between 1 and 10.
Time.................The number of minutes you want the hacker to run
Opening delay........The number of seconds you want to wait after the Hack
port is dialed, before the code/number is dialed.
Wait carrier delay...The number of seconds you want to wait for a carrier after
the dialing process begins (includes dialing time)
Length of code.......The number of digits in the code
Number of carrier....A telephone number to try that ALWAYS gives a carrier.
It is a good idea to use one out of your own free-calling
area
When you have reconfigured it to your needs, hit [Q] [RETURN] to quit. This
will save the configuration so you will not need to reconfigure again the next
time you run AutoHack.
Now, you select "Begin Hacking" from the Hacking menu, and the process will
begin. If you wish to stop the hacker completely, hit [X]. If you wish to
hide the screen, press [H]. Hiding the screen will put a fake screen over top
with the words " The Genius Compiler " on the screen, and false compiling
messages on the screen. When the hack is finished, if the screen is still
hidded, it will display some status. The status "Error:" is the number of
working codes you have gotten. Pressing any key will return to the main
Hack menu.
If you are in "Hide" mode, [H] will return you to the normal screen, and [X]
will still quit.
==================
Scanning section
==================
The Scanner also has a reconfigure screen. These are the options it has:
When you are finished, press [Q] [RETURN]. Notice that these options, too,
are saved so they do not need to be configured each time.
When you begin, it will scan the numbers you have specified. You may press [X]
to abort. Since this is not an illegal activity, I have found no reason to
put the Hide Screen option in this section.
=====================
Reading the results
=====================
When a Hack or a Scan is finished, the results will be in a file on the disk
called "Codes.Dat" (for the Hacker) or "Scanner.Dat" (for the Scanner). These
files may then be printed out or just "Typed" on the screen from DOS.
NOTE: Be sure to print these files, or rename them, before beginning another
Hack or Scan, otherwise they will be overwritten.. I.E.. Poof!
