Written by Jack Callis


Unless your very new torepparttar internet, you are no doubt aware ofrepparttar 118397 various "Get Paid while you surf programs". Many of these programs either pay incredibly low rates per hour that it makesrepparttar 118398 whole process cumbersome orrepparttar 118399 minimum payout rate is so high that you abandonrepparttar 118400 program before meetingrepparttar 118401 minimum payout rate. The other scenario that often happens is thatrepparttar 118402 company closes business before making payments.

As a regular user of many of these programs, I signed up for a recent start up program that pays a reasonable 45 cents per hour to surf, slowly increasing that payout to 75 cents per hour as you collect points. I'm only into this program for a little over two months now, and I can happily report that they have indeed paid me for my surfing on time, and via Paypal. Paypal wasrepparttar 118403 reason behind my decision to joinrepparttar 118404 program.

How dorepparttar 118397 hackers do it? What tools do they use?

A port scanner. What is a port scanner? A port scanner can locate PCs that are online and checks them for an open port. A hacker using a program such as ‘Super Scan’ can find an open port to gain entrance to your computer. Once in, he can use your computer as if it were his own. The only difference is that to all intents and purposes it is you that is causing all ofrepparttar 118398 trouble.

The main port thatrepparttar 118399 hacker is interested in is port 80. This isrepparttar 118400 one that you use to log on torepparttar 118401 internet.
