Yahoo messenger is safe !!

Hello readers, today I could like to give you a warning about your usage of yahoo messenger in internet cafe or in your work or at home. Do you think all your message you send in internet is safe??? not really. Now I will show you what actually goes on behind the screen in the network(wired or wireless) while using yahoo messenger.
We need just a network monitoring tool for doing this. Few such free tool is ethereal, wire shark. Here I am using Wireshark tool. let as assume a user had logged in and started to chat with his friend in yahoo messenger. Another user in the network is using the wireshark tool and he is sniffing the packets from yahoo messenger, to do this he just need to change the protocol type to"ymgs" in the filter now it will filter only the ymsg protocol. Click on the first packet and right click to see"follow tcp stream" and click on it. You will get a window with all the packets which is in "ymsg" now look for the username of the user who is chatting and find the text they have typed.
Now the attacker who reads this message can interact with the unknown user as if he is one of his friend just by gathering the information from the previous chat which is sniffed by the attacker.

BE CAREFUL KIDS AND PARENTS EITHER OF YOU MAY WATCHING YOU. TO KNOW WHAT YOU DOING ON YAHOO..

This video is the demo of this process. Check out and give your views.



DOUBLE CLICK TO WATCH IT
take care
See you next time with other interesting fact in hacking. :)

Very good posting and thanks for this but I would request you to join with all of them who actually want to aware the netizens about the danger of cyber world and for that I would request you to give your valuable comments on my blog for awaring the netizens about the danger of cyber world and how to keep themselves free from the attack of cyber criminals but dont teach anyone how to hack or how to get secret information from net or something else.
    So my friend pl share your knowledge for the sake of the netizens and not for helping the cyber criminals.
