Free Anonymous Phone Numbers for Online Safety

Privacy is a major issue for most people who use the Internet; particularly those who use web based listing service such as eBay, craigslist, and online dating services. Not surprisingly, to interact with these services, participants need to provide a contact phone number.

Not all participants feel comfortable in providing their home, business, or cell phone numbers to unknown parties that can conceivably place them at risk.

So how can you address this challenge? Well, luckily there are a number of free services that offer solutions to this problem.

The new kid on the block is LetsCall.me. Currently, LetsCall.me connects numbers in the US and Canada only.

From the LetsCall.me web site:

This is a free service that makes it easy and safe for people to call you. Use with online services such as Craigslist, or any other situation you want to talk, but don’t want to reveal your phone number.

Create a web address to give to people that want to call you:

http://letscall.me/

Benefits of LetsCall.me

Accept calls anonymously without revealing your phone number

No caller id blocking – always know who’s calling

Block unwanted callers

Easier to remember than a phone number

Great for Craigslist and other internet sites

Be safe – don’t give out your phone number, use LetsCall.me

How it works

Pick your own URL such as letscall.me/johndoe

Instead of giving out your phone number, share your LetsCall.me page

People who want to call you input their phone number on your LetsCall.me page, and then we will call them and connect them with you.

Your phone will ring with the other person’s Caller ID – since the other person needs to receive the call first, they cannot fake their number

Talk with the other person as often and as long as you want

If you want to block the person from calling you, just tell us their number

Check out this free service at LetsCall.me

Another recent addition to this category of fee service providers is Hookup digits.

Take a look at this from Hookup digits website.

How does it work?

Simply type in your REAL phone number (cell or landline number)…then our system will automatically give you a hookup digit phone number. Share this number with who ever you like. The caller never sees your REAL number. (unless you call them) All incoming calls through this number are anonymous.

In addition, the person calling you also shows up anonymous. (the caller ID will show your hookup digits as an incoming call so you know it isn’t your mom calling) The callers are protected too. No sharing of REAL numbers will happen unless you want them to.

What else do I need to know?

Your hookup digits will be active for 7 days, during which anyone can call you anonymously.

After 7 days, if you don’t want to use the number any more, you don’t have to do anything, it just expires. If you still need the number, just return to the site and renew it.

Calls can last for up to 10 minutes, if you need more time, just have the caller call you back. You can do this as many times as you like!

And best of all, its completely free!

Backup and Image Hard Drives/Partitions Free – DriveImage XML Updated

We talk a lot on this Blog about how important it is to have a current backup of all of your critical data, system/hardware drivers (something many of us forget), and user operating system settings, in case of system or hardware failure. Given the state of the Internet today with its epidemic of malware, the chances that at some point you’ll need this backup, are enhanced.

With DriveImage XML, a free, easy to use, and reliable program, from Runtime Software, you can go one step further and image both hard drive partitions and logical drives. According to the developer the latest release, version V2.01, is now faster than ever.

The real benefit of course in imaging your full drives and partitions is you now have the ability to restore your complete operating system, as well as your installed applications, user settings, and the registry.

Recently, one of my colleagues copied a dying hard drive to a new drive in less than an hour, directly from Windows XP using this versatile free application. Pretty impressive for a free application, I thought.

DriveImage XML uses Microsoft’s Volume Shadow Services (VSS) to create images, allowing you to create safe “hot images” even from drives currently in use. Images are then stored in XML files, which allows you to process those files with third party tools.

If, or when it becomes necessary, you can now restore the image to the same or a replacement drive. You also have the option of copying the drive image directly to a new drive, just as my colleague did. An added feature of DriveImage XML is the included image explorer that permits access to previously created backup images and the extraction of individual files.

Since this program is currently distributed as freeware, there is no technical support offered. Instead, refer to the program’s help file and documentation. If you need additional help you can refer to the program’s frequently asked questions (FAQ).

Quick facts:

Backup logical drives and partitions to image files

Browse these images, view and extract files

Restore these images to the same, or a different drive

Copy directly from drive to drive

Schedule automatic backups with Task Scheduler

Restore images to drives without rebooting

Free for home use only

Runs from a WinPE boot CD-ROM

Backup, image and restore on FAT 12, 16, 32 and NTFS drives

System Requirements: Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista

Your Lack of Security Awareness Hurts You and Me on the Internet

What you don’t know can’t hurt you, right? There are many people who actually believe this statement, and that’s fair enough. For those who do believe this old truism, I have news for you.

What you don’t know when it comes to your computer system’s security, and more to the point, Internet security, can hurt you big time. But what really frustrates me is, what you don’t know can hurt me.

We’re talking about a sad reality here – the majority of computer users are undereducated when it comes to recognizing the dangers and threats that the Internet poses to their computers, and to their personal privacy. If your computer is inadequately protected while you surf the Internet you increase the probability that at some point I will be victimized!

The inescapable conclusion is, the more infected computer systems there are that are attached to the Internet, the larger the attack surface is for cyber-criminals to use these infected machines in an attempt to infect my system

We all know that the Internet can provide a rich educational and cultural experience and it can satisfy our nosiness, our inquisitiveness as well as our curiosity. Using the Internet we can snoop, probe, and pry; and question, or confirm, virtually any statement, fact or opinion. But here’s the caveat: don’t let your curiosity override your common sense.

The downside is, each time you connect to the Internet you are wandering through a neighborhood which has a reputation for being jam-packed with predators. These predators are intent on stealing your money, personal information, installing damaging programs on your computer, or misleading you with an online scam.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, since bad news bearers run substantial risks, (just ask Sophocles), but essentially, if you are an unaware computer user you simple don’t know, what you don’t know, when it comes to adequately protecting yourself – and by extension, me – on the Internet.

Earlier this year, a survey prepared by McAfee Inc. declared; while 98 percent of computer users agree that having up-to-date security software is important for system security, a significant number of the survey respondents have computers with security software that is incomplete, or dangerously out of date.

The results of this survey are consistent with my own anecdotal evidence, and I am convinced that this survey does not overstate the case.

Highlights of the McAfee survey:

Ninety-two percent of those surveyed believed their anti-virus software was up to date, but in fact, only 51 percent had updated their anti-virus software within the past week.

Seventy-three percent of those surveyed believed they had a firewall installed and enabled, yet only 64 percent actually did.

Approximately 70 % of PC users believed they had anti-spyware software, but only 55 percent actually had it installed.

25% of survey participants believed they had anti-phishing software, but only 12 percent actually had the software.

Now we have the results of another survey conducted by Steganos, a computer security software developer, which essentially affirms the results and conclusions of the McAfee analysis.

Highlights of the Steganos survey:

No antivirus software: 13 percent of the survey participants were aware they had no antivirus software installed on their computer.

Unsure if antivirus was installed: 9 percent were unsure if antivirus was installed on their computers.

Firewall installation: a surprising 19 percent were unaware if a firewall was installed and operating on their computer.

Privacy protection: a startling 60 percent of participants lacked software to protect their privacy.

Internet Browser security/privacy settings: the majority of those surveyed (52 percent), were unaware of their browser’s security/privacy settings.

Where do you fit in all this?

Computer security, on or off the Internet, but especially while surfing the Internet, has to be a priority; it cannot take a back seat to anything. It needs to be first and foremost in computer users’ minds as they interact with the Internet.

Eugene Kaspersky a highly regarded computer security expert was recently quotes as stating “Internet criminals are now smarter than ever, ultra-organized, and engaged in increasingly complex scams.” Kaspersky went on to say “In such an aggressive and dangerous environment, it’s crucial that users should bolster their online defenses.

So, it may well be that you need to take the time to survey your computer to insure that all relevant security applications have been installed, are up to date, and are operating correctly.

FireFox 3.0.2 Released – 11 Bugs Fixed – Update Today!

The latest update of FireFox version 3.0.2 now available for download includes patches for 11 security deficiencies, many of them rated as critical by Mozilla Corporation.

If you are still using FireFox version 2, then you need to update this version as well, since the latest release of this version includes 14 patches. A number of patches in version 2 are exclusive to this specific version.

Frankly, if you are still using version 2 you need to take the plunge and update to version 3 now. There is no guarantee that Mozilla will continue to offer support for version 2.

A number of the vulnerabilities in version 3 were serious, and included stability issues related to graphics rendering, layout and JavaScript engines. Each has the potential to cause browser crashes could potentially leave the user open to exploitation by malicious code.

The latest FireFox security advisory lists the following vulnerabilities as having been patched.

MFSA 2008-42: Critical

Titled “Crashes with evidence of memory corruption (rv:1.9.0.2/1.8.1.17)”–Mozilla says under certain circumstances memory corruption could be exploited to run arbitrary code.

MFSA 2008-41: Critical

Titled “Privilege escalation via XPCnativeWrapper pollution”–Mozilla says this fix includes “a series of vulnerabilities which can pollute XPCNativeWrappers and allow arbitrary code run with chrome privileges.”

MFSA 2008-39: Critical

Titled “Privilege escalation using feed preview page and XSS flaw”–Mozilla says this fixes “a series of vulnerabilities in feedWriter which allow scripts from page content to run with chrome privileges.”

MFSA 2008-37: Critical

Titled “UTF-8 URL stack buffer overflow”–Mozilla says “a specially crafted UTF-8 URL in a hyperlink…could overflow a stack buffer and allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code.

MFSA 2008-38: High

Titled “nsXMLDocument::OnChannelRedirect() same-origin violation”–Mozilla says the same-origin check in nsXMLDocument::OnChannelRedirect() could be bypassed and could be used to execute JavaScript in the context of a different Web site.

MFSA 2008-43: Moderate

Titled “BOM characters stripped from JavaScript before execution”–Mozilla says certain BOM characters are stripped from JavaScript code before it is executed and could lead to code being executed.

MFSA 2008-44: Moderate

Titled “resource: traversal vulnerabilities”–Mozilla says the restrictions imposed on local HTML files could be bypassed using the resource: protocol, allowing an attacker to read information about the system and prompt the victim to save the information in a file.

MFSA 2008-40: Low

Titled “Forced mouse drag”–Mozilla says the vulnerability allows an attacker to move the content window while the mouse is being clicked, causing an item to be dragged rather than clicked-on possibly forcing a user to download a file or perform other drag-and-drop actions.

MFSA 2008-45: Low

Titled “XBM image uninitialized memory reading”–Mozilla says a bug in the XBM decoder allowed random small chunks of uninitialized memory to be read.

It is highly recommended that you update immediately on the Mozilla site, or by clicking on Help – Check for Updates in FireFox.

Download Free Crossloop – Be a Tech Hero for Family/Friends/Customers

Are you, like me, the tech support guru/IT department for your friends, family, and perhaps even the neighborhood?

I’m often asked by friends, to help them, their friends, their neighbors ………. the list goes on endlessly, to reconstruct a computer that is not responding properly, has become loaded with malware, or in some instances, has been taken over by a hacker.

Earlier this year, I was called upon in just such a situation, which is when I discovered CrossLoop; a free remote desktop application with a simple and distinctly user friendly interface, which CNET’s Download.com has recognized as one of The 10 Best Downloads of 2007.

After spending some time viewing an excellent introductory video on CrossLoop, available on YouTube, it was easy for me to see that this neat little application had all sorts of possibilities.

It struck me right away that the typical computer user using CrossLoop, doesn’t need to know anything about ports or protocols, or any other complicated jargon, and with CrossLoop up and running, connection to the remote computer can be accomplished within minutes. Even some of my friends, who are moderately techno competent, are now using this neat little tool to rescue their family’s and friend’s computers.

The individual needing assistance installs CrossLoop and runs the main application, then goes to share, and provides the access code to you. You then enter the 12-digit access code, click the connect button, and on connection the CrossLoop server does all of the behind- the- scenes work.

CrossLoop enables you to see the screen, and control the mouse and keyboard on the remote computer. Many users have commented that it feels just as if you are working side by side with the remote user, on the same PC. I second that perception. Awesome!

If you need to transfer files during your session, you’ll find that it’s a snap. What could be easier than using drag and drop to copy a file or folder onto a dialog box?

Security is built into all aspects of a CrossLoop session. Data is encrypted at the end-points before being transmitted using a 128-bit encryption algorithm made up of a randomly generated 12-digit access code.

The CrossLoop help page is one of the most complete I have seen. It provides a step by step text and pictorial guide to the process, so that even newbie support techs should have no problem looking like a pro.

Bottom line: If you have the skills, and you have the opportunity to provide tech support to your family or friends, then CrossLoop is the must-have tool for the job. It’s a powerful productivity tool that enables you to quickly collaborate with anyone, anywhere in the world.

New Barack Obama Survey Gas Card Scam

Regular readers of this site are aware, that some time ago I wrote “Now that Barack Obama has been officially nominated to carry the Democrats’ banner into the upcoming U.S. presidential election, be prepared for a deluge of spam scams perpetrated by cyber-criminals based on his popularity”.

Most of the scam emails I’ve seen, so far, are crafted around spicy, scandalous, and salacious stories.

So, for those of us who aren’t particularly enamored with salacious stories, or the web sites that seem to specialize in them, cyber-criminals have developed a different approach (still social engineering of course), to convince you to click on spam email containing enclosed links.

According to Trend Micro, a new email currently circulating, asks the recipient to participate in a survey with the sweetener being a chance to win a $500 gas card. We all love contests, and with the chance to win $500 in gas, who wouldn’t click on the link. Good old social engineering – it really works doesn’t it?

But here’s the downside; click on the link and you arrive on the Smileycentral.com, web site. Despite the view held by many, that this is a safe site, the fact is, this site is a distributor of malware under the best of circumstances.

The prominent “Always Free” button on this site, if clicked, will lead to a request that you download an ActiveX control which, when downloaded, will begin the process of installing the ADW_MYWEBSEARCH Trojan on your system.

In addition to this new email scam, there are a number of other Barack Obama related email scams currently making the rounds on the Internet, most of which purport to offer access to sex tapes “starring” Obama.

I know, you’re asking yourself – who could possibly believe this kind of nonsense?

The simple answer is this – cyber-criminals know that by sending out countless billions of this type of email, enough people will respond, by clicking on the embedded link, that it will produce millions of dollars in easy pickings.

Incredible as it may seem, billions (that’s right billions), of spam email messages are generated every hour through so called botnets; zombie computers controlled by cyber-criminals.

Until the U.S. election is over – 6 weeks from now –emails referring to Barack Obama should be automatically treated as a threat to your computer.

If you missed previous articles on Obama email scams checkout “Scam Email Trojan Alert – Another Obama Sex Tape” and “Barack Obama – His Transsexual Affairs”, on this site.

Follow the tips below to protect yourself against these and other threats.

Install an Internet Browser add-on such as WOT (my personal favorite), which provides detailed test results on a site’s safety; protecting you from security threats including spyware, adware, spam, viruses, browser exploits, and online scams.

As an addition to your existing malware applications, download and install ThreatFire 3 (free from PC Tools), which blocks mal-ware, including zero-day threats, by analyzing program behavior and it does a stellar job. This is one of the security applications that forms part of my front line defenses. I have found it to have high success rate at blocking mal-ware based on analysis of behavior.

Don’t open emails that come from untrusted sources.

Don’t run files that you receive via email without making sure of their origin.

Don’t click links in emails. If they come from a known source, type them on the browser’s address bar. If they come from an untrusted source, simply ignore them, as they could take you to a web designed to download malware onto your computer.

Keep your computer protected. Install a security solution and keep it up-to-date.

Ensure your anti-virus software scans all e-mail attachments

Be proactive when it comes to your computer’s security; make sure you have adequate software based protection to reduce the chances that your machine will become infected.

If you are unsure if your software based protection is up to the task then checkout, “Free Windows Software You Can’t Afford Not to Have”, on this site.

Adeona – Free – Stolen/Lost Laptop Tracker Software

You’ll never lose your Laptop computer, and you take particular care to ensure it won’t be stolen, right? Of course you do. But does loss, or theft, of laptops happen? You bet.

Recent survey results from the Ponemon Institute, indicates that more than 10,000 laptops are lost, or stolen, each week at U.S. airports. Are you as surprised as I am?

Not surprised? Well, how about this astonishing statistic from the same survey: 65% of those lost or stolen laptops are not reclaimed, despite the fact that half the laptops contain confidential corporate information.

One can only hope that the data on these laptops was encrypted, although it seems when we read news stories about a lost or stolen laptop, the pattern seems to be as follows; – 200,000 (insert your own number here), bank account numbers, Social Security Numbers, names, addresses and dates of birth were on an unencrypted laptop stolen/lost earlier this week.

Other available statistics indicate that a laptop is stolen, not lost but stolen, every 53 seconds and 97% of stolen laptop computers are never recovered.

So what can you do to increase the probability that should your laptop be lost or stolen, you can increase the chances that it will be returned to you, than the above statistics indicate?

Adeona (named after the Roman goddess of safe returns), is a newly released small software client for tracking the location of a lost, or stolen laptop, that does not rely on a proprietary central service, but instead, is offered free by the Open Source community.

This powerful free software has been developed through collaboration involving the University of Washington, the University of California San Diego and the University of California Davis.

The developer’s website describes the application as follows:

Adeona is designed to use the Open Source OpenDHT distributed storage service to store location updates sent by a small software client installed on an owner’s laptop.

The client continually monitors the current location of the laptop, gathering information (such as IP addresses and local network topology) that can be used to identify its current location.

The client then uses strong cryptographic mechanisms to not only encrypt the location data, but also ensure that the cipher texts stored within OpenDHT are anonymous and unlinkable. At the same time, it is easy for an owner to retrieve location information.

Quick facts:

Private: Adeona uses state-of-the-art cryptographic mechanisms to ensure that the owner is the only party that can use the system to reveal the locations visited by a device.

Reliable: Adeona uses a community-based remote storage facility, ensuring retrievability of recent location updates.

Open source and free: Adeona’s software is licensed under GPLv2. While your locations are secret, the tracking system’s design is not.

The Mac OS X version can capture pictures of the laptop user, or thief, using the built-in iSight camera.

System Requirements: Windows XP/Vista, Mac OS X, Linux

Download at the developer’s web site: Adeona

Steal Your Friends Passwords and Software Licenses!

I’ll bet that headline got your attention!

We all know that the purpose of computer passwords is to protect personal information that you’ve stored on your computer, and in your online accounts.

With access to your passwords, cyber-criminals (they come in all shapes, sizes and flavors – so don’t be fooled), can and will, steal your identity and without a doubt severely compromise your financial security. Stolen passwords have the potential to cause serious havoc in your life.

There are numerous ways of course that a password, or software license key, can be stolen. Popular methods employed by cyber criminals include, but are not limited to:

Email scams: Email scams work because the Cyber-crooks responsible use social engineering as the hook; in other words they exploit our curiosity to start the process of infecting unaware computer users’ machines

Search engine redirection: Cyber-crooks continue to be unrelenting in their chase to infect web search results, seeding malicious websites among the top results returned by these engines. Malware, including password stealers can be installed on a computer simply by visiting a site.

Drive-by downloads: Drive-by downloads are not new; they’ve been lurking around for years it seems, but they’ve become much more common recently. They are crafted to automatically download and install malware including password stealers on your computer without your knowledge.

Now, added to the burden we already carry in protecting our computers, our private personal information, and our confidential financial information, we now have to be careful, and perhaps even suspicious of our friends, or for that matter anyone, who inserts a USB drive including MP3 players into a USB port on our computer.

USBThief is a free hacking application – available for download on virtually every torrent download site that I investigated – which can be installed on a USB flash drive, or even an iPod, or other MP3 player. I haven’t tried to install this on a Digital Camera, but I suspect (with some modification), that it can be done. Consider how often a friend, or family member, has connected any one of these peripherals to your machine.

USBThief has been designed and crafted with only one purpose in mind, and that is to steal both the passwords, and software keys, on the duped party’s computer.

There is no requirement that the culprit is a seasoned hacker – all that’s needed is that an ethically challenged individual download the program; decompress the archive and put all the files located in the folder “USBThief” onto a USB drive.

After connecting and removing the tweaked USB drive from the victim’s computer, the cyber-criminal simply views the dump folder to view the captured information.

I have not written this article to produce paranoia, or to make you suspicious of either your family, or your friends, but so that you are aware of the ever increasing challenges we all face in protecting valuable information in a world that threatens us, at every turn it seems.

Drive-by Downloads – Update Your Browser Right Now!

Your Firewall and Security Applications along with your Browser security add-ons provide the ultimate in protection while you’re surfing the web, right? Well in a sense they do.

Paradoxically, it’s because current anti-malware solutions are marginally more effective than they have ever been in detecting worms and viruses, that we’re now faced with another insidious form of attack.

Drive-by downloads are not new; they’ve been lurking around for years it seems, but they’ve become much more common and more crafty recently.

More than three million unique URLs on over 180,000 websites are automatically installing malware via drive-by downloads, according to recent statements by the Google Anti-Malware Team.

Google has not been alone in noticing this trend by cyber-criminals using these techniques. According to IBM cyber-criminals are directly attacking web browsers in order to steal identities, gain access to online accounts and conduct other criminal activities.

If you’re unfamiliar with the term, drive-by download, they are essentially programs that automatically download and installed on your computer without your knowledge. This action can occur while visiting an infected web site, opening an infected HTML email, or by clicking on a deceptive popup window.

Drive-by downloads work by targeting Internet browser vulnerabilities to download and run malware automatically when a user visits the site. Don’t think that by staying away from dangerous website such as adult sites that you’re any safer. The fact is these infected websites are all over the Internet.

Often more than one program is downloaded, for example, file sharing with tracking spyware is very common. Again, it’s important to remember that this can take place without warning, or your approval.

Recent statistics seem to indicate that 40% of frequent Internet users continue to use an outdated version of their current Internet browser. Statistics generated from my own Blog stats put this figure at 31%. These users’ are essentially already victims just waiting to be victimized again.

Do you want to ensure you are protected, or to reduce the chances you will become a victim? Then there is a really easy way to do that – update your browser to the latest version now. Right now!

While all Internet browsers can be subject to vulnerabilities, the free FireFox browser from Mozilla is the browser of choice for most security conscious users, and is preferred by those who tend to think “Geeky”, due to the amazing number of add-ons that increase safety and functionality.

Download FireFox here.

You need to be proactive when it comes to your computer’s security by making sure you have adequate software based protection to reduce the chances that your machine will become infected.
