Bad news: The guy at the next table is a hacker,  and he&#8217;s <em>also<\/em> working on your  Facebook page. Sit tight, I have a few ways for you to make yourself invisible  to hackers. <\/p>\n<p><\/a>One Very Serious Threat<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a pervasive, serious  Facebook and Twitter exploit that leaves you wide open to any and every hacker  who can download a simple-to-use, free tool called Firesheep. It&#8217;s a threat if  you&#8217;re using an unsecured, public Wi-Fi network, typically available at an  Internet cafe, airport, hotel, or RV campground. <\/p>\n<p>Last week TechBite paid  subscribers got the first dispatch about this in the Extra newsletter; here&#8217;s a  more detailed version. <\/p>\n<p><strong><a name=\"the\" id=\"the\"><\/a>The Hacking Tool<\/strong><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/codebutler.com\/firesheep\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Firesheep<\/a> is an HTTP session  hijacker that runs as a Firefox extension and sniffs around for cookies on any unsecured  Wi-Fi connection. <\/p>\n<p>When you log onto Facebook,  Twitter, or any of over 26 other social networking sites, your computer sets a  session cookie. A person running Firesheep can read the cookie and log onto  your Facebook page. Then he (okay, or <em>she) <\/em>can do anything from your Facebook account, such as send e-mail or write on  a wall.<\/p>\n<p>Every browser is vulnerable to  the exploit.<\/p>\n<p>The one saving grace is that Firesheep  doesn&#8217;t have access to your password &#8212; that&#8217;s encrypted and safe. If the  hacker tries to change it from within Facebook, you&#8217;ll get an e-mailed alert. But  everything else on Facebook is fair game.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/codebutler.github.com\/firesheep\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Download<\/a> and try Firesheep  if you don&#8217;t believe me. There&#8217;s nothing as shocking as reading a stranger&#8217;s  Facebook or Twitter account without their knowledge or consent. It might actually  motivate you to do something to protect yourself.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a name=\"who\" id=\"who\"><\/a>Who&#8217;s Behind Firesheep?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Firesheep&#8217;s author has an open  agenda: to force social networking sites to make the entire online session  secure, just as the online banking sites do. (When you&#8217;re on PayPal or your  bank&#8217;s site, you&#8217;ll see an icon of a lock somewhere on your browser, and the  link will start with &#8220;https&#8221; rather than just &#8220;http.&#8221;) <\/p>\n<p>I think it&#8217;s a dang stupid way  of getting people to see the problem, but what do I know?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aweber.com\/archive\/techbite\/11Q5F\/h\/Make_Yourself_Invisible_to_Wi_Fi.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">How to Make Yourself Invisible to Hackers<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/techtalk.pcpitstop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/stevewp.jpg\" alt=\"steveb\" class=\"attachment wp-att-7167 alignleft\" \/><\/p>\n<p>By Steve Bass<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;re at Starbucks, busy  working on your Facebook page.
