Simple (but fully working) code for
NPLogonNotify(). The function obtains logon data, including cleartext password.
[Wayback/Archive] PSBits/PasswordStealing/NPPSpy at master · gtworek/PSBits has been used in the wild since about 2022 (the code is from 2020).
The code is a ~100 line C file resulting in a DLL exporting the NPGetCaps() and NPLogonNotify() functions.

I wish I had bumped into this page a way sooner as it contains most if not all the keyboard symbols I ever looked for: [Wayback/Archive] Unicode: Keyboard Symbols ⌘ ↵ ⌫
The page contains a lot more than just this diagram (which already is a great start):
⎋ ` 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 - = ⌫ ⎀ ⤒ ⇞ ⇥ Q W E R T Y U I O P [ ] \ ⌦ ⤓ ⇟ 🄰 A S D F G H J K L ; ' ↵ ⇧ Z X C V B N M , . / ⇧ ↑ ⎈ ❖ ⎇ ␣ ⎇ ❖ ▤ ⎈ ← ↓ → 🌐 ⌃ ⌥ ⌘
Some more symbols are at these pages:

Sometimes you need to see a tiny bit of code to have this “aha moment”. One for me was a few years back:
[Wayback/Archive] Florian Haas on Twitter: “alias kubectl="TZ=Etc/UTC kubectl" You’re welcome.”

TL;DR: it was a Dutch keyboard, which almost nobody in The Netherlands uses (US or US-International are the most used physical keyboard layouts over there)
I tried searching for keyboard layouts using Google with these special keys that were present on the keyboard (listing all keys that either have special symbols on them, or use the Alg-Gr modifier):

Reminder to show how well my experimentation with [Wayback/Archive] Better Uptime went and how they compare to [Wayback/Archive] UptimeRobot.
For now I am at this plan in [Wayback/Archive] Pricing | Better Uptime:
Free:
- e-mail alerts
- 3-minute checks
- 10 monitors
This suffices to keep an eye on the modest IT infrastructure at both our home and the one from my mentally retarded brother.
Note that other prices on that pages are per month. Despite the default selection being “annual plan” the very light grey and thin “/mo” on a black ground indicates they are still per month, but you get 20% discount with the annual plans).

After installing my Apple Silicon MacBook, I found out my machine had gotten named automatically in two different ways:
hostname Jeroens-MBPscutilA few reasons I dislike that:
Finding out how to fix all this was a tedious job as I had to keep refining queries:

For my link archive as this is environment variable override trick to override DLL loading is not just limited to executables shipping with Windows, but also with other products (likely: virus scanners that run privileged); another alternative is running a local process serving the WebDAV protocol.

Interesting for both red teams and blue teams: [Wayback/Archive] Hijack Libs
This project provides an curated list of DLL Hijacking candidates. A mapping between DLLs and vulnerable executables is kept and can be searched via this website. Additionally, further metadata such as resources provide more context.

Fron a while ago but still relevant [Wayback/Archive] Is it Pokémon or Big Data?.
It is a cool experiment to test your own knowledge or for fun to assess recruiters or candidates (;
And it is open source too:
