Our Environment Project

Our Project are talking about Global warming by emissions of carbon dioxide using bad the computer. According to support.com, it is estimated that activating power management functions on your desktop computer can result in saving up to $75 per year and over 11 million pounds of CO2 emissions. The equivalent to planting more than 1000 acres of trees, burning more than 13,000 barrels of oil and saving more emissions than 5000 cars driving from NY to LA.

Our mission can be archived by making deals with most popular websites on internet to lend some space to show the advertizements, with a maximum size of 500x500 pixels. Some of them could be: Google, eBay, Amazon, Cnet, IGN, CNN, NBC, and other news and technology websites.And some national websites like: URBE, LUZ, MercadoLibre, Globovision, Venevision, RCTV, Noticias24, and others.

Online Dictionary

For use an online dictionary I chose this article and find some words that I don’t Know so I put it in the dictionary http://www.answer.com/ and I find the meaning of the two words

Cracking

Cracking is the process of breaking down the security issues or protection methods of a system. When cracking is concerned with software, it is called Software Cracking. Cracking can break copy prevention. The serial numbers, hardware keys, passwords etc. can also be found out by cracking. The people who do these kinds of activities are called Crackers. Apple II and Commodore64 are the first copy protection software. The software crackers are successful in breaking the copy protection and it is considered to be an illegal task.

Crackers need to have a strong knowledge to crack these protections. Cracking is an illegal process but, the distributions of the copies that are cracked are termed to be most illegal by the lawsuits. Now-a-days, all software comes with copy protection, but defeating the protection involves individual’s knowledge to experiment on it and crack it. So, the crackers are skilled people who use their knowledge in illegal aspects. The United States have passed, The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DCMA), to make software cracking and distribution of cracked information as illegal. In May 2001, The European Union passed The European Copyright Detective to make cracking illegal. Cracking is done by modifying the application in binary and preventing the key in program’s execution. With the help of the debugger, the cracker can reach the subroutine which contains the protection code. Now, the binary can be modified in a way it can replace the opcode with its NOP opcode, which skips the subroutine to be executed.
