[release] ATPSP 3.1

[Realn0whereman]

ok this will most likely be the last release. This is an app that will help return your psp if it is stolen and the thief access' the memory stick via usb, this app will send you an email with his IP . this file is only about 3 kb so it should not concern people about space. just have this on your stick just in case.I made a flavor of ATPSP for the conservatives out there which shuts down ur computer if ur not the owner and try to access the PSP stick


PAST VERSIONS WILL NOT WORK



If you vote please suggest what i should do. The harshest i can think of is to just shutdown the comp everytime it is started.. and changing the background if i can


ok here is what this release is about:
# should send a popup to everyone on the network that that person stole the psp.

OK to get started.
1.Right click on my computer and click properties
2. Go to the Advanced tab
3. Click on Enviormental Variables at the bottom.
4. You will see 2 white boxes. one above the other. click into the lower one labeled System Variables.
5. Click New
6. A box will popup asking variable name and variable value
Variable Name = thief
Varable Value = false

MAKE SURE SPELLING IS CORRECT!!!!

7. After you Add the info click the OK box. Keep clickin the ok box until you have exited to your desktop.

Great now you are considered the PSP owner


drag all the files in the attachment into the root of your psp (X:/)

now you have to setup your email
1. Right click the .htm file and click edit or open it with notepad
2. Near the end you will see a crazy email adress (asdf92j4509sdjfi340i5df@ gmail.com)
3. replace this with your email adress. In my case it would be trainstroker@gmail.com
4. save this .htm file and close it

Great now the rest is optional
there are 2 .ico files for you to choose from. you can find more online but for now lets use one of these 2. by default you are using psp.ico. if you wish to change that do the following
1. open autorun.inf with notepad or right-click and click edit
2. change icon=psp.ico to icon=whatever_icon_you_wa nt.ico

ok now to change the PSP title

1. open autorun.inf with notepad or right-click and click edit
2. Change label=PSP to label=Phils Amazing PSP or whatever you wish.. just be sure to not change label= just whats after that.

Spoiler for Source:

<?

$subject = "I stole your ".$object;

$msg = "IP ADDRESS:\n".$REMOTE_ADDR.  "\n\nBROWSER:\n".$HTTP_US  ER_AGENT;

mail($email, $subject, $msg);

?>

if you have any questions then please feel free to ask..

So many of these programs..can't you keep them in one thread? =\

[Realn0whereman]

theres only 3 of mine. v1 , v 1.4 and v 2. why since the comments for 1 would apply to all and some issues have been fixed.

[MikePiP]

Only 3? TMK had like 3 or 4 releases and he has one topic.

[Realn0whereman]

ok.....

[hOmeBoYPiNoY]

AHHH I CAN'T ACCESS MY FiLES ANYMORE! iT JUST TAKES ME TO GOOGLE EVERYTIME I TRY IT! SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE

[hOmeBoYPiNoY]

Never Mind I Fixed iT. DEE DEE DEE. I just had to restart my comp.

[mincho]

Nice

[Mr.Game]

Good release. Its great to see new homebrew out, but its even better to see people not b!tch!ng. But that will never happen. By any means keep it up.

[deanspeed]

does this mean that it wont email me if i plug it into my PC. and then if i plug it into some one else it will email me? I hope so...

[cyanide]

heres my suggestion.

make a small vb app which asks for a password.
and autorun it.

if the password is wrong, do the ip thing.
if its right, open my computer and the drive.

i have a really good idea, but unfortunately, i dont have visual studio installed.
ill try to make something better than this. it would only take a few minutes

[cyanide]

secondly, your program doesnt work.

the first thing its doing is autorun the batch script. and in the batchscript, you have this:
cls
if [%thief%]==[false] goto good
call index.htm
goto end
:good
start explorer .
:end
cls

and how the hell would the batchscript know if its the thief or not. you just put in a few lines of waste which isnt gonna make a difference.

[consolep]

wrong post

[LNAtropic]

This is great. Considering alot people nowadays are running on either DSL or CABLE. This is a great idea man... who would have thought of something like this. It's simple too.

LNA

[LNAtropic]

You might want to fix it so that if they were smart enough to right click and select explore, and if they aren't the psp user, that it would send an email.

thats the part that makes it works......

[TeamOverload]

So then if they plug it in, theif will be set to true and you'll get an email. Is that how this works?

[Realn0whereman]

no. the owner has thief = false cz hes not the thief. and if nothing exists thief!=false and that sends the email. by the time the thief realizes whats going on (of he does) then u should already have his IP

[TeamOverload]

Oh alright I get it. Thanks for clearing that up.

[XSonic]

I agree with the password autorun thing..No password = No PSP access

[Realn0whereman]

format the stick and that plan is down the drain

[XSonic]

I still don't think this will stop thieves anyway because by the time you get the IP and track where they live, they'll have probably sold it for cheap or gotten rid of it..I'm sorry but this WON'T stop theives doing what they are good at; thieving and selling stuff.

[Realn0whereman]

but if the cops get involved then they can try to get the info from them. dude if ya dont like it dont use...

[deanspeed]

I think this is great. also i dont want to have to put in a password every time i plug it into my pc. so i like how it is.

[willy101]

Hey you guys nice job again!
Another "what if" question for you...
What if the theif has the aforementioned variable set to thief and value false? Wouldn't he or she be able to bypass the security "program?"

[Realn0whereman]

yeah but what thief knows that ?

[mm91187]

what if the thief doesnt have internet? it wont send the email then will it?

Q and A respectivaly. this is to help return ur psp not guarantee it

[Realn0whereman]

i COULD port this to linux (i think) but its pointless as Pats is taking the lead with supperior code and is past me in complexity. so theres no point makin mine linux compatible and gmdude66 dosent wanna work together

[Realn0whereman]

what do u guys think?
