Twinsen (hacker handle) has written Port Dumper, which is a good program
for Unix type computers which will deal with snoopers like me. He says "I use
this to play with my friends. This program is used to listen to a port (any
port), after it is connected with others, you can type something and Port
Dumper will send it. It is quite useful when you want to fake a service, such
http, smtp, etc... or even telnet (Evil Genius Tips: You know it!) It is in my
homepage, Channel X Security Information (http://home.netvigator.com/~jcatchan/). I
may write a guide on using it to do a specified mission (such as faking as an
http server...) later. Hope you'll enjoy using it! Use at your own risk.. I'm
not responsible for the use of this stupid shell script....
Richard Thomas (Humble) has written RotoRouter., "a program for logging
and faking the standard Unix udp-based traceroute... . When someone is about
to do a DOS (denial of service attack), it is commonplace for them to
traceroute to the target, launch the attack, and traceroute again to see the
effect..., secure in the belief that their traceroute will never be noticed.
They commonly trace from their home machines (99% of packet warriors have
28.8k modems and bandwidth envy, right :P), or ... from the hacked machine
they are attacking with."
RotoRouter is a great way to fake out those losers who think attacking
other people's networks is fun. It sends fake Time Exceeded and Destination
Unreachable messages. In Humble's words, other ways his program can fake out
people include:
However, to run RotoRouter, you must install it on a Unix type computer
-- as root. This is another reason to run Linux on your home computer. If you
have what it takes to run RotoRouter and want to fake out people and fool
attackers, you can get it at

If you really want to have fun, and if you suspect someone has broken
into your system, there is a free program for Unix computers called
TTY-Watcher It is available from
http://www.engarde.com/. TTY-Watcher lets you see exactly what anyone is
typing on their keyboard while they are logged on to your computer. You can
even record their keystrokes and play them back at the same speed the intruder
typed them -- or play them back faster, if that d00d is a slow typist.
