ProPakistani Hacked - Contains Links to Payday Loans Site
7/04/2013 05:45:00 pm
ProPakistani.PK is the leading website in Pakistan which covers the Pakistani telecom sector and IT news. It is quite popular in Pakistan where it has gained an Alexa rank of 153. Today I noticed a weird thing on their website when I opened their website on my mobile phone. I found a link to quick-loans.tripod.co.uk in their header but if you open it on your computer, it is not shown. On further investigation I found that the link was hidden using the following code:
On opening the website nothing shows up:
But when I looked at the source code of the website, I found a link to Payday loans website:
Now there are only two possibilities of this:
A) The site is hacked.
B) Aamir Attaa (owner) is selling links on his site.
I think the option A will be true. There is a lot of heat going on with the spammy Payday loans showing up in the SERPs having links from hacked sites. Google also shows a notification in the Webmaster tools if it detects any unnatural links on a site. Probably Aamir Attaa is unaware of this situation.
You can also see the hidden link by going to view-source:http://propakistani.pk/. Then search for payday loans to see the hidden link.
If Aamir Attaa is reading this, then I strongly recommend him to remove the links ASAP.

Best Solution to Disable Copy/Paste & Right Click on Website
6/03/2013 05:48:00 pm
There are a lot of JavaScript available to disable the right click and text selection on webpage but all of them lack the proper functions and almost all of them shows a annoying message when a user clicks on right mouse button like "Right click disabled' or "Copy/paste disabled".
I also faced a similar situation and after searching on Google, I found that there was no script that matches my requirements. So I have created a simple but very effective JavaScript that will disable the copying of text, images and right mouse button. This JavaScript will also disable the commands like Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V. The text will be replaced by your url if some one will try to copy the content from your site.
This is the code:
You can use this on any website that supports JavaScript including WordPress, blogger blogs and so on.
How to use this:
For blogger blogs, go to Layout> Add a gadget> HTML/JavaScript and paste the code shown above. Click on save.
Some of the unique features of this Javascript are:

How to Remove Default Tab Extension in Google Chrome
5/25/2013 11:38:00 am
Default Tab extension is actually a browser hijacker extension and it usually comes along with free games or other products. After its installation, when you open the Google Chrome next time, a new default tab opens up with a search function instead of showing a blank page or the page you have set as homepage.
I also faced a similar situation when my brother installed a free game and this browser hijacker was packed with the game. After its installation, it changed the default tab in Google Chrome to a website with search option. I tried removing this extension by going to wrench menu > Extensions > Default tab but it showed up again next time. I tried deleting it from Add/Remove Programs but it comes again. Luckily I found a way to get rid of Default Tab extension.
Follow the steps given below to remove Default tab:
Step 1: Go to wrench icon > Extensions and remove the default tab extension.
Step 2: Close the Google Chrome.
Step 3: Go to Add/Remove programs and uninstall the Default tab.
Step 4: Open the Task Manager and kill the process "Default tab". The name of the process will be similar to default tab.
Step 5: Go to C:\Program Files and delete the folder "Default Tab".
Now open the Google Chrome and you will see that the Default tab extensions is gone now. Now run a virus scan to make sure that there are no other viruses on your computer.
