Any of you old school computer gurus remember SubZero? | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 14905916 United States 09/25/2012 12:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It was SubZero. And you could also bring up a black box on their screen and type to them. You could also access their files. It was a fun one to just mess with friends/family. Could have been used for more sinister purposes, I suppose, but most I knew used it as a joke. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 23777758 United States 09/25/2012 02:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I forget maybe its SubSeven.. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 6235765 It was a hacking program that allowed you to watch what people were doing on their internet? AHHHHH the good ol days. OP, you FAIL. Truly "Old School" = before internet. When hacking required you to actually dial your modem into the phone line connected to the computer system you were trying to hack. I was hacking when my elementary school had only one computer, an 8086 with a 256 baud modem. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 6235765 I didnt know you could do it to friends/family.. unless you knew their specific IP That's not true. I used to send it to family members via e-mail telling them it was a funny video. Then would tell them I wasn't sure why it didn't work. Then, a couple of days later, I'd mess with them. haha |
