Happy 42nd part 2
So... as I was saying....
What happened? If you had been "played", then on 9th August 2007 00:00hrs, the My Computer icon on your PC would have been changed to the Beng Hacks icon =) Neat eh? LOL
How did I do it? Simple really.
First is to propogate a trojan into the wild hiding as a freeware tool (in my case, file chopper). Embedded in this tool is a timer to change the My Computer icon at the fixed date, via the registry. Using SetRegistryValueEx, I modify
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\
Software\
Classes\
CLSID\
{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\
DefaultIcon
to my icon I already unpacked when u installed the filechopper.
^_^
Just to show that I'm nice, to set it back, just find the registry value above and set back to %SystemRoot%\Explorer.exe,0
