Once locked, BananaScreen will keep an eye on faces coming and going in front of the camera. When it matches yours, it immediately unlocks your computer. Pretty Cool

Imagine a desktop where the backgrounds were based on the time of day and time of year. Imagine being able to listen to natural sounds such as birds singing, crickets chirping, or rain falling. Imagine having a mini-display on the desktop that showed animated day and night cycles, clouds, lightning, and more! That is what the Natural Desktop is. It doesn't interfere with your work or your other desktop enhancements.
The sounds, which can be turned off if you wish, are a welcome treat for those who work inside all day. Morning doves singing in the morning to cicadas in the afternoon and crickets and owls at night all give a subtle and realistic simulation of what the outside might be like (or what you might wish it were like if you're wishing it was a pleasant spring afternoon instead of a dreary late Fall afternoon).

Popular semi-private tracker Demonoid.com has opened registrations. Readers who couldn't get invites in our last two giveaways can now get one for free. Demonoid site says it opens registrations 2-3 days a month but last time signups opened it didn't last that long. So be quick.
Site Name: Demonoid.com
Signup URL: http://www.demonoid.com/register.php
Description: if you don't know this you should be shot in the balls :p . It's the best semi-private tracker out there and perhaps the best torrent tracker ever.
By now most of you should know that most of the pirated stuff (movies, music, apps, etc) comes from 'The Scene".Only a few get to be part of a scene group but once you get in, you'll know that it's a totally different world than you imagined it to be.
Scene notices are public (public to scene members that is) messages similar to .NFOs that scene members use to brag, flame, regroup, coordinate activities and make announcements. Most of the time, these are fun to read (and they do sometimes contain really hateful stuff towards P2P sites and users).
But how can you read them if you do not have access to a scene topsite or an IRC? There are of course pre channels and pre databases which you could easily monitor but you would have to dedicate your life for this task if you want to distinguish release announcements from notices. This is where SceneNotice.com comes in.
SceneNotice.com filters and posts notices from release announcements so that there is no need for you to go through huge lists to find one. The site also has categorized search.
Give it a try: Visit SceneNotice now.
Here is another decent private tracker that is currently open for signup. This tracker is somewhat similar to Demonoid in concept. It has a very large user base (around 500000) and a large number of torrents. So there is huge amount of content but sometimes leeching may occur one newer releases .
Site Name: ZAMUNDA.NET
Signup URL: http://zamunda.net/signup.php
Note: If you leave any fields blank in the signup form it wont let you continue. You will need to fill even the web site field. If you don't have a web site just fill it with a general site.
If you cannot understand the form and menus, change the language to English from the top left corner (see screenshot below):
Also make sure you read the rules and the FAQ.
It is a well known fact that the warez scene has beaten Microsoft many times when it comes to releasing MS software to the public. It seems that Microsoft has been beaten yet again; one such scene group have released a Service Pack 3 integrated version of Windows XP. The release by popular scene group Zero Waiting Time ISO (ZWTISO) comes just after SP3 was released to manufacturers so it can be assumed that the integrated service pack is the RTM version.
As with many scene releases, this is bound to leak to bittorrent sites across the world. In fact, a popular private tracker is now tracking a torrent of this just 20 minutes after the release was pre'd by ZWTISO.

This is a problem most newcomers to the torrent scene face. You may have downloaded movie torrents for days, only to be disappointed by the low video quality. This is when TorrentScreens comes in.
TorrentScreens is a service that allows you to view screenshots of popular movies leaked on bittorrent. The site indexes screenshots by release name (usually scene release name). You only have to match the release name in torrent site with that of TorrentScreen's and you'll get to see the movie quality for yourself. Make sure that the torrent is not fake as anti piracy outfits are known to upload fakes with names similar to that of scene releases.

Blackcats-Games.net is the best dedicated games torrent tracker out there. It tracks several thousand windows and console games. Obviously, it is not easy to get into and the tracker had signups closed for a long time and later the admins decided to close the invite based signups too. Now here is the good news; although you may not notice it, the Blackcats-Games is accepting new signups. You just have to be there at the right time. That is easier said than done though.
The tracker opens signups for very brief periods of time (Seconds actually). At other times it will display the following message:
"Max users have been reached for the current time period. Have some cocoa, watch the sun rise (or set), and come back. Nature is beautiful. You might get lucky."
Even if you miraculously get the signup form on first try, you will have less than 9 seconds to fill the form; if you are late, you will be treated with a similar message. Now you may think it is impossible to signup. It is not; at least with a few nice addons for Firefox it isn't.
1. Download Check4Change FireFox extension from here. For more information on this addon visit here. Check4Change (aka C4C) is a simple extension that allows you to periodically check a web-page for updates.
2. Download AutoFormer FireFox extension from here. For more information on this addon visit here. AutoFormer loads saved data in forms.
3. Visit http://www.blackcats-games.net/ and click on the Register link. (Directly accessing signup page would not work.)
4. You will be taken to the page with 'max user limit reached' message. Now select the message text or message heading ("Signup failed!"), right click --->Check4Change-->Custom. Enter 3 seconds in the "Refresh and check every.." field under "Check Interval". Also tick "Dont refresh while viewing page" button.
5. Check4Change will now refresh the page every 3 seconds to detect any changes. Within 15 mins it will detect the signup form being loaded and notify you. Now take your time and fill each and every field (Except the captcha) carefully. Double check everything and make sure you tick everything. Note on Email - Blackcats will not accept popular free email addresses. If you have an ISP provided address, use it. If you don't, gawab.com mail seems to work fine.
6. Before you click submit, Go to FireFox Edit menu-->Autoformer--> click "save all fields". Now press submit. You will be greeted with "Max user limit reached' message again. Do not worry this is normal.
7. Repeat steps 3 and 4 once more and wait till Check4Change to detect a change. This time be on high alert. The moment it detects the signup form being loaded, switch to the tab immediately. Autoformer will automatically load the values previously entered. This saves you valuable seconds. Quickly fill the captcha (no spaces when filling two words) and hit submit. You should get confirmation email within 30 minutes. If you still get "Max user limit reached' , that means you were too late. Repeat steps 3,4 and 7.
Now that was more fun than playing Crysis, wasn't it?
Note: Read the Rules and FAQ of the tracker immediately after you get in. Dont breach the rules and give something back to the community.
Good Luck.

Popular semi private bittorrent tracker Demonoid.com is back online after suffering from months of downtime due to legal pressure. The site's front end is now hosted in Ukraine. Site is accessible via both www.demonoid.com and www.demonoid.cc domains.
Demonoid homepage displays the following message:
Welcome back!
Since a few months ago, Deimos, the site administrator, lacks the necessary time to take care of the website, because of personal matters he's been needing to attend to. For this reason, he has decided to leave the site staff.
Before leaving, he assigned a new site administrator from among his friends to take care of the site. The old moderator team will continue helping with the site, unchanged. We will try to keep running everything just as it always has been.
The trackers and website seem to be working properly, and should any issues arise, they will be taken care of as soon as possible. The site might be going on and offline over the next days as we work out any problems.

Demonoid Site admin
New signups are currently closed but old user accounts (ones active at the time of shutdown) seem to be still working. Demonoid's trackers and RSS feeds are also up.
Click here to visit Demonoid.
For most of us, Demonoid is probably the first private tracker (in fact it was semi-private) we managed to get into. The BT world has not been the same ever since its demise last September. It's popularity was such that it had (and still has) sites replicating it's layout. Anyway, for the folks who are breathlessly awaiting Demonoid's return and hoping for a miracle, you can get your hopes up.
Here is why:
Hello Everyone,
It is with great sadness (and not a little relief) that I announce that I will be stepping down as admin of Demonoid, with effect from today.
Demonoid is currently suffering from a number of things, prime amongst these being my distraction with real-world issues, and so I have handed the reins over to a new administrator - a close friend of mine, which I trust completely and has the knowledge and time to take care of the site.
He will, in due course, be making his own announcements about the future of Demonoid. Of course, speculation over the future of the site is fun, but it is ultimately fruitless - you will all, in the near future, become aware of what the future holds. I trust that you will all give your support to the new admin as he finds his feet while he resurrects Demonoid.
Thanks again for your support in making Demonoid what it was and is.
Goodbye and good wishes - it has been a blast!
- Deimos
That's what the Demonoid administrator, an anonymous Slovenian who goes by the name Deimos, posted on SubDemon forums. Although it will be sad to see Deimos's departure, the site's return will be welcome news for most of us. Demonoid's tracker and RSS feeds have already started working again.
Before the release of Service Pack 1 (SP1) for Windows Vista, Microsoft promised to disable several hacks that pirates could use to circumvent its copy protection mechanisms. The cracks targeted by Microsoft included the infamous BIOS emulation crack. However, days after Vista SP1 release, a group from the warez scene claims to have cracked SP1's copy protection enhancements.
The release comes from the well known scene group BIE. They have a long history of cracking MS programs and BIE cracks are famous for displaying message 'please wait patiently while BIE cracks Billy's ass' during cracking process. The group has released a pirated version of Vista which has Service Pack 1 integrated.

An R5 rip of the highly popular movie 'The Bank Job' has been leaked to bittorrent few hours ago. The first group to release the movie was iAPULA which is a non scene P2P group. Then the scene group TRD stole the P2P release and re released as their own (Which was nuked). Finally group BaLD has released a 1CD (700MB) rip from their own source. The quality is excellent as usual.
The Bank Job is a 2008 crime film based on a 1971 true-life robbery of a bank in Baker Street, London, from which the money and valuables stolen were never recovered. The story was prevented from being told because of a D-Notice government gagging order, allegedly to protect a prominent member of the British Royal Family. According to the producers, this movie is intended to reveal the truth for the first time, although it includes significant elements of fiction and the extent to which it represents historical fact is difficult to determine.

L0phtCrack is a password auditing and recovery application (now called LC5), originally produced by Mudge from L0pht Heavy Industries. It is used to test password strength and sometimes to recover lost Microsoft Windows passwords, by using dictionary, brute-force, and hybrid attacks. It was one of the crackers' tools of choice, although most use old versions because of its price and low availability.
The application was produced by @stake after the L0pht merged with @stake in 2000. @stake was acquired by Symantec in 2004. Symantec has since stopped selling this tool to new customers citing US Government export regulations, and has announced that they will discontinue support by the end of 2006. The product, however is still available for download via 'you-know-what' :p

Here is some good news for the unfortunate souls who've got P2P traffic filtered by ISP or blocked by a firewall (usually the case with schools, workplaces etc). The new service from ImageShack might just save your asses.
The main idea behind the new service is that ImageShack will download the torrent to their own server and provide you with a link to the stored file. You can then use this link to download the content tracked by the torrent file as a direct HTTP download.
Some quick facts about the service:
How it is done
Step 1: Login/signup to imageshack
Step 2: Visit the service homepage.
Step 3: Select the .torrent file you wish to download.
![clip_image001[5]](http://lh4.google.com/Noreply.filenetworks/R_iBVbViP2I/AAAAAAAAAco/h5uWnLPfINw/clip_image001%5B5%5D%5B3%5D.png)
You can either give the path to .torrent file in your hard disk or directly link to the .torrent file located in BT site.
Step 4: Start the download 
Step 5: Once download is complete, use the direct link to directly download content to your hard drive via HTTP.
The service is currently in beta. And you may not get enough storage capacity immediately after you join as they are still in the process of allocating storage space for users. But it sure looks promising.
