Source: Subseven munga bunga and HDKP munga bunga recently posted this on his website: "According to some sources, and what we have found out, HDKP 4 is embedded into the recent versions of Sub7. The codes are in the software, and the Hard Drive Killing function is only accessible if you have the Master Password for Sub7. The Sub7 crew admitted to using HDKP with Sub7 regularly, therefore, we wouldn't be surprised if the rumours are correct. All in all, we do not mind, and the point of mentioning this is to inform those who kept sending us email and asking to validate the rumours. Most of the details were posted to the Cyber Army message board.". you can check the webpage here a couple of comments on that: the post is not entirely correct [again]. HDKP _is_ indeed embedded into 2.1 bonus [encrypted] but bonus has no master password. on startup, the 2.1 bonus client checks for the icq uins installed on the local machine. if uin number 7889118 is found under the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Mirabilis\ICQ\Owners, it will decrypt HDKP, save it to a BAT file and run it. the specified uin belongs to Sean Hamilton [a very annoying kid]. HDKP was intended for him, and it worked perfectly [congrats to munga bunga]. you can test this yourself if you have a hard drive to kill by creating a registry key called "7889118" under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Mirabilis\ICQ\Owners and running sub7bonus [WARNING: your hard drive WILL be killed!]. this is a perfectly safe method to show some people that sometimes it's better to just shut the hell up. this also explains my previous post for everyone that emailed me about it. using HDKP is a very efficient method of entirely destroying a hard drive [by simply uploading it to a server and running it]. you can get HDKP from the url posted above, and read more info about it. posted on Monday, January 15, 2001 by mobman ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** Source: Hackology Sub7 and HDKP According to some sources, and what we have found out, HDKP 4 is embedded into the recent versions of Sub7.
