Robos msn

Recuperar una cuenta MSN robada

Lo primero que debemos saber en estos casos es que la Ley está de nuestro lado: el robo de contraseñas está penado con la cárcel. Debemos dirigirnos a las dependencias policiales más cercanas y denunciar el robo de igual manera que si nos hubieran robado un objeto valioso como, por ejemplo, el coche. En caso de ser menores deberemos ir acompañados de algún adulto, preferentemente nuestro padre o tutor. Si vuestros padres os dicen que es una tontería hacer eso, deberéis concienciarles que con tu clave de acceso cualquier extraño puede tener acceso a tu información almacenada en lugares como blogs, comunidades, correo, etc además de poder suplantar tu identidad y cometer actos fraudulentos (como vaciar tu cuenta bancaria) que podrían ponerte en serios aprietos.

IBLNEWS: Primera condena en España por espionaje del correo electrónico Telecinco: Dos años de prisión por usar el correo electrónico de otra persona
Consumer.es: Un juez de Barcelona dicta la primera condena en España por usar el correo electrónico de otra persona
COPE: Condenado por apropiarse de una cuenta de e-mail de otra persona El Mundo: Primera condena a una persona por «apropiarse» de la cuenta de correo de otra
La voz de Galicia: Dos años de cárcel y 27.000 euros de multa por usar un «mail» ajeno

No es ninguna locura o tontería acudir a una comisaría para denunciar el robo de una cuenta Passport y ya existen antecedentes donde se han llevado a los infractores a juicio para ser condenados y para indemnizar a sus víctimas. Sí, has leído bien, tienes derecho a una indemnización.

Pero no solo hay que avisar a las autoridades, también debemos avisar a Microsoft para que tome las medidas oportunas para recuperar nuestra cuenta o al menos limitar las posibilidades del intruso con nuestra información hasta que se aclare el problema. Para ello deberemos ponernos en contacto con el soporte técnico de MSN aquí rellenando los datos que nos piden y explicando nuestra difícil situación así como aportando posibles datos que demuestren que esa cuenta es legítimamente tuya (fecha de creación, cuando la perdiste…) El soporte técnico se podrá en contacto contigo rápidamente y te pedirá que respondas a una serie de preguntas para demostrar que la cuenta efectivamente te pertenece.

Consejo: Al rellenar el formulario de contacto guarda una copia del mismo así como el número de incidencia que se proporciona al pulsar el botón “Enviar”. ¡Ah! Y recuerda poner una dirección de correo de contacto distinta a la que te robaron o el servicio técnico no podrá ponerse en contacto contigo. No es la primera vez que alguien comete este despiste y luego se queja de no recibir ningún tipo de contestación por parte de Microsoft.

CMD INTRODUCTION

DOS is dead, long live the command line

Before proceeding further, I wish to clear up a common misconception that the command prompt in Windows XP is the same as DOS. Even some experts who know better sometimes refer to the command prompt as a “DOS window”. In fact, Microsoft itself isn't always careful about the distinction. There are some superficial resemblances and some commands with the same name but in fact the old 16-bit DOS is dead. All remnants of DOS are totally gone from the Windows XP kernel (there is a DOS emulator for legacy programs). Windows XP is a 32-bit protected memory system with a totally different approach from the DOS/9X/Me family. The command line in XP has many more capabilities and none of the 16-bit limitations like the restriction to the DOS 8.3 file name format. The augmented capabilities make the command line a powerful tool.

The command prompt window

The command prompt is run from its own window by invoking the Windows XP command interpreter that is provided by the file cmd.exe located in the folder \Windows\System32\. (The old DOS command interpreter is command.com.) If you look in this folder you may also see several files that look suspiciously like some of the old DOS files. They are, however, different 32-bit versions with many new features. The command prompt window can be opened by entering "cmd" (without quotes) into Start-Run or through Start-All Programs-Accessories. A black and white window (the colors can be changed) containing the command prompt will open. The window looks just like the old DOS window but don’t be fooled, it isn’t. Note that it is possible to open several windows containing command prompts, all running independently. It is even possible to run a separate command prompt shell inside another command prompt window.

Internal and external commands

There are two kinds of commands that can be run from the command prompt. There are the internal commands that are built into the command interpreter like “del” and “dir”. These commands can only be run from a command prompt (or by invoking the command interpreter in some other way). They are listed in the table below. There is also a large list of external commands that use an additional executable file that can be run from either the command prompt or the Start-Run line. Details of the various commands are available in several places. In the Professional version of Windows XP there is a help file ntcmds.chm, which has details of all the commands and their many switches. The help file can be opened by entering (without the quotes) "hh ntcmds.chm" into Start-Run. It may or may not be in the Home Edition, depending on what setup you have. However, in both versions a list of many (but not all) of the commands available can be obtained by entering "help" (without quotes) into a command prompt. For more detail on a specific command, enter "help command-name" or "command-name /?" For example to get information on the command xcopy, enter "help xcopy" or "xcopy /?”. Microsoft keeps moving things, but the last time I checked they had a command line reference at this link. Some of the commonly used commands are discussed on this page and in the list given here.
Table I. Internal commands in the command shell
assoc dir  move set
break echo  path setlocal
call endlocal  pause shift
cd exit popd start
cls for prompt time
color  ftype pushd title
copy  goto rd type
date  if rem verify
del   md ren volume

Some symbols that are used

In addition to the commands, there are several symbols that are used. These modify or combine the actions of commands. The table below gives a list.
Table II. Symbols used with commands
Symbol FunctionExample
> Sends output to a named file. If file does not exist, it creates one. Overwrites existing file command > somefile
>> Appends output to contents of a named file or creates a file if none exists command >> somefile
< Uses contents of a named file as input to a command command < somefile
¦ Sends ("pipes") the output of command1 to the input of command2 command1 ¦ command2
& Used to combine two commands. Executes command1 and then command2 command1 & command2
&& A conditional combination. Executes command2 if command1 completes successfully command1 && command2
¦¦ Command2 executes only if command1 does not complete successfully. command1 ¦¦ command2
@ Used in batch files at the beginning of a line to turn off the display of commands @echo off
The most commonly used symbols are the two redirection symbols ">" and ">>" and the so-called pipe, "¦" . (Just to make sure there is no confusion, the "pipe" is the symbol above the back slash on most keyboards. On keyboards it has a break in the middle but the break does not always show when you type the symbol. A special code is used to show it on a Web page.)
A frequent use of the redirection is to save some output to a text file. For example the command dir somefolder > somefile.txtsends a list of the files in "somefolder" to a text file "somefile.txt". More about this type of use is on this page. A common use of the "pipe" is to control the screen display of some command with a lot of output. For example, if you want to check the list of files in a folder with many files, you can display one full screen at a time by piping to the command "more" dir somefolder ¦ more
