The 'Hack Pack' Mega-Thread

24+ pages of 'thanks bro' — the compiled-tools thread that never died and outlived Gametration itself.

A member named HaSh kicked off a 'mega-thread' in the Red Light District's Software subforum, bundling together various tools scraped from other posts in the section into one convenient pack, crediting the original posters (Afteryou, Shifty, Prinz, Millerlite, Kiingy). The thread became a long-running community staple, ballooning to over 20 pages as new members trickled in for years just to say thanks. The page captured here shows the tail end of its life, spanning a rebrand from Gametration.com to Fkn0wned.com, with dozens of low-effort 'thanks'/'ty'/'big thx' replies from mostly low-post-count members — a classic bump-thread that became a rite of passage for newcomers.

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK, SOME SOFTWARE MAY INCLUDE HARMFUL MATERIAL!— HaSh

thank you all i love fkn0wned— numba1killer

holy shit, gotta see this! Thanks!— xkentax

Mega-Thread: Adobe Products (the 11-page warez sticky that outlived a rebrand)

The legendary 11-page Adobe warez mega-thread that outlived two forum rebrands

A long-running 'Red Light District > Software' sticky where members posted links and installers for Adobe Photoshop CS2, Photoshop Elements, Bridge, and Stock Photos updates, complete with activation instructions. The thread is notable mostly for its longevity — it started in mid-2006 under the Gametration.com name and was still being bumped years later after the site had rebranded to Fkn0wned.com, with new noobs still saying thanks and asking for reups on page 10. It's a good snapshot of the site's warez/cheat-scene culture and its slow drift and eventual rebrand over the years.

please report to me if dead links!— k0rn_h0li0

Thanks lads— nooben2005

DCL's 10,000 Full Programs and Cracks Mega-Thread

A 17-page monument to warez culture — one guy, ten thousand cracked programs, and hundreds of 'ty' replies keeping it bumped for months.

This was a long-running mega-thread in the Red Light District > Software section of Gametration.com (later rebranded Fkn0wned.com), where user DCLXVI posted a massive compiled collection of cracked/full software. The thread spans well over a hundred pages of replies, mostly members thanking the OP, requesting reuploads/unhides, or dropping one-line hype. It's less a discussion than a running tally of gratitude and low-effort bumps that kept the thread alive across late 2007 and into 2008, spanning the site's transition between its two names.

DCL FTW— Exodus

i bet its 9999 u dam hackars!! i r H@xors— Tightnme

Damn, this is good.— Giibi

Limewire Pro 4.14.8 Release Thread

A software share so beloved it kept old-school members saying 'unhide' for six months straight.

A member named monk3y posted a cracked copy of Limewire Pro 4.14.8, touted for supposedly adding torrent support, in the Red Light District's Software subforum back in August 2007. The thread became a classic low-effort bump magnet, with dozens of members chiming in over the following months with one-word 'ty', 'unhide', or 'thanks' replies just to reveal hidden download content. One reply even called out that the software was itself stolen/reposted ('thx but its stealed'). It's a snapshot of an era when file-sharing tools and cracked software were casually swapped in the darker corners of gaming forums.

thx but its stealed— -PoG-

hmm no virus this time ? ^^— w44s

Torrent support eh?— Monkeygeek

Virus Makers (Red Light District > Software)

A shared 'virus maker' download thread ends with someone's antivirus log full of trojans — and everyone just says 'ty' anyway.

This was the tail end of a long-running thread in the Software subforum of Fkn0wned's Red Light District, where members shared and thanked each other for a 'virus maker' tool. A few pages in, member abstract1337 posted an antivirus scan showing the shared download was flagged as containing multiple trojans (Win32/VB.NDG, Win32/Delf.NGG) and told people to delete it. Despite the warning, the thread kept rolling with the usual low-effort 'ty', 'thanks', and 'hawt' replies typical of file-sharing threads on the forum. It's a small but telling snapshot of the site's Red Light District culture — sketchy tool-sharing, minimal vetting, and a community that shrugged off malware warnings.

delete this it has viruses....— abstract1337

omg ty lol— abstract1337

hawt— sniperownsdicks

I-Doser: 'Gets You Hi Through Sounds'

The old binaural-beats thread where half the forum swore digital drugs actually worked

A long-running thread (this is page 9 of the tail end) about I-Doser, the software claiming binaural audio tracks could simulate drug-like effects. Members traded skeptical curiosity, quick reactions after trying tracks, and the usual low-effort bumps ('thx', 'unhide', 'ill give it a try') typical of a wildly popular but shallow Red Light District thread. One user's account of dozing off mid-session and waking up twitchy with 'flashing dots' stands out as the thread's most memorable anecdote.

haha, i tryed a-bomb. didn't get much, but thats because i dozed off to sleep halfway through and woke up at the end, and when i opened my eyes i seen flashing dots for about a minute, then when i got up i was all active and twitchy. ahah nice— tEKnikal

Lol i know this one, never had a chance to try it out.— dxthammer

Is this Rapidshare too???— lowhailfire

Upload Sites! (2008 mega-list of file hosts, forums & free web tools)

One member's giant 2008 link-dump of every free upload site, host, and forum script the internet had to offer — and it got pinned.

Started by dark_skillz in early 2008, this thread is a sprawling reference list of file-sharing/upload sites, free web hosts, forum software, remotely-hosted forums, free subdomains, free domains, webmail providers, and site counters — basically a survival kit for broke teenagers trying to host cheats, images, and websites without paying for anything. The community reception was warm and appreciative, with several members suggesting additions (like uploadarmy.com and niggorex.com) and staff eventually deeming it useful enough to move and pin in the Software section. It's a solid time capsule of the mid-2000s 'free everything' web ecosystem — Rapidshare alternatives, Geocities-era hosting, and old-school forum engines like YaBB and phpBB2 all get name-checked.

Should Be pinned— blackxthink

So many free altenatives to RS.— wirmware

moved and pinned in software section.— HaSh

Mega-Thread: Useful Apps (Boot CD Toolkit Dump)

The one thread that had literally every DOS/Windows utility a PC tech could ever need, all in one boot CD.

A sprawling 'mega-thread' in the Red Light District > Software subforum where user k0rn_h0li0, a prolific Warez Manager with nearly 1,900 posts, dumped a massive catalog of an all-in-one bootable DOS CD: partition managers, disk cloners, data recovery tools, BIOS/CMOS utilities, password reset tools, and general Windows system utilities. It reads like a classic mid-2000s 'ultimate toolkit' warez post, the kind of resource thread old forum members would bookmark for fixing broken PCs. The thread ran at least 10 pages, suggesting it stayed active and useful to the community over time.

WinRAR 3.71 Cracked [Latest]

A cracked archive-manager download that kept old members saying "ty" for years

A simple software-sharing post in the Red Light District > Software subforum, offering a cracked copy of WinRAR 3.71. The thread itself is barely more than the standard program blurb, but it racked up over a decade's worth of one-line bumps from members just saying thanks, requesting a re-up, or reporting a dead link. It's a good time-capsule example of the low-effort warez-sharing culture that filled Fkn0wned's Red Light District section.

woot i need this— .:KaNiNe:.

unhidz0r pl0x— slingblade

thanks edit: "file not found" on rapid...— l3g0

MSN Account Cracker thread (Red Light District, 2007)

The classic 'MSN password cracker' thread that ran seven pages deep in the Red Light District

A Software subforum thread in the Red Light District section where a member posted a tool claiming to crack MSN Messenger accounts, a staple genre of mid-2000s cheat/hack forums. The thread stretched to seven pages, suggesting a mix of curiosity, requests, and likely skepticism typical of these tool-drop threads. Posters 'Afteryou' and 'ballistic' were both marked as Banned members by the time of this archive, hinting at the forum's loose moderation of this section and the eventual fate of many contributors there.

Serial King V2.1 release thread

A member's homemade Visual Basic tool for crowdsourcing software serials, complete with a YouTube tutorial and a two-guy credit split.

In the Software subforum of the Red Light District section, member Nathan2005 released version 2.1 of his self-coded program 'Serial King,' an FTP-powered app for sharing software serial numbers, built with help from a member called Vegeta. The post lays out changelog notes (new interfaces, popups, installer, faster FTP), addresses anticipated user complaints about viruses and connectivity, and asks the community to be patient since it was an early release. It's a snapshot of the DIY, homebrew-tool culture of the forum's 'Red Light District' — small-time devs building and sharing their own little utilities for internet points and community goodwill.

serial king is powered by FTP and made by Visual Basic, i have spent quite alot of time making— Nathan2005

special thanks to Vegeta, he released his serial thing so he gave me the idea— Nathan2005

please dont post comments like rubbish ect, please let the program develop and spread it as much as you can— Nathan2005

Password^Stealer Release Thread

A 12-page password-stealer release thread that's basically just a wall of 'thanks', 'unhide', and one guy's Kaspersky catching it as a trojan.

This was a long-running release thread in the Red Light District > Software section of Fkn0wned.com, centered on a piece of software dubbed 'Password^Stealer'. The vast majority of visible replies are the classic forum-download ritual: members posting 'unhide', 'thanks', or 'ty' to reveal hidden download links, with a scattering of confusion over file errors and at least one member reporting their antivirus flagged the tool as a trojan. It captures the everyday texture of a mid-2000s 'warez/cheat scene' board — low-effort bumping, Xfire handles in signatures, and rank titles like Noob, Trained Noob, and Pro Spammer.

'tis a trojan, thats what my kaspersky said to me— Anexxion

why is it all file uploaders are banned? <--my head right now— adrienspawn

Sony Vegas 7.0c share thread

Six pages of thank-yous for a video editor everyone in the CS:S montage scene needed

A long-running Software-board thread in the Red Light District section where members shared a copy of Sony Vegas 7.0c, the video editing suite widely used at the time for making Counter-Strike frag movies and montages. By this point in the thread (pages 4-6) the actual sharing details are long buried under a stream of one-line replies — mostly 'thanks', 'ty', and 'unhide' requests — spanning from late 2007 into early 2008. It's a good snapshot of the era's editing-software culture and the low-effort bump/thank-you posting style typical of warez threads on these boards.

i got better on aony vegas 8.0 pro— Zeton

where the * can i get xfire??— Zeton

been looking for this— Vydran

Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended + Keygen Upload Thread

A rar-splitting, keygen-bundling Photoshop CS3 giveaway that ran for pages of one-word 'thanks'

In the Red Light District's Software subforum, member AveLoN (posting in October 2007, apparently to farm reputation as a newcomer) uploaded a multi-part RAR release of Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended along with an activation keygen, password-locked to the site's own URL. The thread ran to at least three pages, with dozens of members dropping by through December 2007 just to post brief 'thanks'/'ty'/'unhide' replies to unlock or acknowledge the download. It's a classic snapshot of early forum warez culture — piracy uploads as reputation currency, and threads kept alive purely by drive-by gratitude posts.

leik noob? ... I'm going to post Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extend.— AveLoN

Everything is working 100% properly. ENJOY!— AveLoN

iPod Themes! (5G/5.5G Firmware & Custom Skins Thread)

Back when your iPod Video was your other computer — custom firmware, Scarface skins, and a Windows Vista theme with 'game support'

A 2007 Red Light District > Software thread where LoRd Ragealot shared custom firmware and theme downloads for 5th/5.5th generation iPod Videos, along with a guide for telling the two hardware revisions apart (and a warning not to mix up firmware between them). Includes screenshots of themes like a Scarface skin and a Vista-style interface, all pointing to third-party tools like iPodWizard. A handful of members drop in with quick thanks, giving it that classic low-key appreciation-thread vibe of the era.

DO NOT USE 5.5G FIRMWARE FOR A 5G IPOD OR VICE VERSA OR U WILL HAVE TO REFORMAT IPOD.— LoRd Ragealot

thankz anarchie65, what would i do without you— necroviz

Thx man <3333— InzaneHacker

Hacking Into a Computer [With Pictures]

A 2008 NetBIOS 'tutorial' that had half the board begging to unhide it

In the Software subforum of Red Light District, member dark_skillz posted a tutorial about NetBIOS hacking on local networks, referencing Cain and Abel as a tool, with the actual steps hidden behind a spoiler/reply-to-unlock wall. The thread quickly filled with members asking to 'unhide' the content and a scattering of casual replies, plus one member (Stev0) noting the technique only worked on LAN/WAN, not over the internet as some might assume. It's a classic snapshot of the era's low-effort 'hidden tutorial' posting style and the community's eagerness to see gated content.

Good tut but people guna think you can hack through ip's lol when this is only for LAN & WAN.— Stev0

unhide— xpro0fx

show plz and ty— Rose

Find Any Crack Or Serial Within 15 Seconds

A mod's 'best tool ever' for finding cracks and serials turns into a slow-burn thread of thank-yous, virus warnings, and shrugging reassurances.

A Super Moderator, DCLXVI, posted a hidden-content download claiming to find cracks or serial keys for any software, OS, or game within seconds. The thread ran for weeks and drew dozens of replies, split between members casually thanking the poster or requesting to 'unhide' the content, and others flagging it as containing spyware or viruses. No real resolution was reached — some called it safe, others warned it wasn't, and the thread just kept accumulating 'thx' and 'unhide' posts long after the original warnings.

This Is The Only Best Tool I Think, By which You Can Find Any Crack Or Serial Key Within 15 sec.— DCLXVI

THIS HAS VIRUSES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!— adamdafoo

This has Spyware.AIMMON Actually only the Yahoomonitor file does.— Schwergangig

Skype Unlimited malware scam shut down by mod

A 'free unlimited Skype calls' download that turned out to be malware, closed by the mod himself

A member named Rebelz posted a 'Skype Unlimited' tool promising free untracked Skype-to-Skype and phone calls, pitched partly as handy for prank calling. A handful of members thanked him and grabbed it, but it quickly stopped working for several users, antivirus software started blocking it, and one poster called it out as bundled with a trojan/malware. Mod Afteryou, who'd initially joined in on prank-call banter, shut the thread down and tagged it as a virus, warning against reposting it.

This is skype unlimited, you will never have to pay for calls again. - Great for pranking calls are not tracked.— Rebelz

unhide this shit need some kinda trojan/malware called rinst.exe this guy is a fucking fake!!!!— abusayaff

Stop posting this or you will be banned!— Afteryou

Mega-Thread: Portable Apps

A 7-page relic where hundreds of members just showed up to say 'ty' for a mystery pile of portable apps.

This was a long-running 'mega-thread' in the Red Light District > Software subforum where original poster DCLXVI (later renamed MessiaH, a Co-Manager) dropped a bundle of portable applications for members to grab. The thread ballooned to 7 pages almost entirely through drive-by 'thanks/ty/unhide' replies from the community rather than discussion, a classic pattern for download-mega-threads on cheat/warez-adjacent forums of the era. Notably the page shows the site itself mid-transition, with headers flipping between 'Gametration.com' and 'Fkn0wned.Com,' capturing a rebrand/domain-change moment in the forum's history. The vibe is pure late-2000s forum culture: low-effort bumps, xfire handles in every signature, and a 1000-post 'club' badge system marking the old-timers.

Many portable applications!— DCLXVI / MessiaH

oh yeah im so wet— zubetube

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\VIRUS.EXE— mflames01

Product Keys Thread — The Classic 'Reply to Unhide' Ritual

A giant, years-long thread of forum members begging each other to 'unhide' a pile of software keys.

A 2007 thread in Gametration's 'Red Light District > Software' subforum, started by user elitenoob offering a batch of product keys for games and programs. The replies are almost entirely low-effort 'thx', 'unhide pls', and gratitude posts from members trying to access the hidden content, stretching across seven pages. It captures the classic old-forum ritual of hidden-content threads where you had to reply just to reveal the goods.

here they are (theres a bunch)— elitenoob

just want to say i love you!!!!! and ive been looking for this forever.— creamy_noodles

unhide thx— thesource

Pokemon Java Mobile Ports Sharing Thread

Old-school Pokemon games ported to Java phones — nostalgia bait that got 40+ replies of pure hype

A software-sharing thread in the Red Light District where someone posted Java mobile phone ports of the original Game Boy Pokemon titles (Red, Blue, Yellow, Green). This is page 3 of a multi-page thread, mostly filled with short reaction posts from members hyped to relive the classic games on their phones. No real drama, just a steady trickle of gratitude and excitement typical of a warez/download thread on this board.

gotta catch 'em all! pokemon!— smileyjade

ooooo hope these work on my phone— d(0_0)b

this is sweet— Prof_Oak

Shifty's DJ & Music Producer Essentials Mega-Thread

The cheat forum's resident 'r3birth?' banned user drops a mega-thread of DJ software and VST plugins instead of aimbots

A long-running mega-thread on Gametration's 'Red Light District > Software' subforum where user Shifty compiled and updated a running list of music production and DJ software (Virtual DJ, Native Instruments FM8, ReCycle, U-he Filterscape, iZotope Ozone, Anwida VST EQ packs) with detailed descriptions of each tool. It ran to at least 5 pages, showing the off-topic software-sharing side of a forum otherwise built around game cheats. Notably, the original poster's account is tagged 'Banned' and shows the joke title 'r3birth?', hinting at later drama or a rename/ban tied to this long-time member.

Here I will post the best apps for a Music Producer/DJ or anyone who is interested in that area.— Shifty

Big Microsoft Crack Pack!

A staffer drops a Microsoft keygen bundle and half the forum just says 'ty' for three pages straight

A [Staff] member named Fluffman posted a link to a bundle of Microsoft product-activation tools (covering Office, server OSes, and XP) in the Red Light District's Software subforum. The thread became a classic low-effort 'thanks' bump-fest, with dozens of members chiming in with one-word gratitude, requests for an XP activator, and quoted reposts. It's a small snapshot of the site's software-sharing culture and its Red Light District section where such downloads lived.

gr8 i need a xp activator..— Paws

Gotta love school block bypasses =]— ballistic

hmm thx for the share— ballistic

Massive Download List! 3000+

A megathread of 3,000+ downloads that everybody said 'thanks' to and nobody remembers what was actually in it.

This is page 3 of a long-running Software subforum thread built around a huge, community-compiled download list (advertised at over 3,000 items) posted in Fkn0wned's Red Light District section. The visible content is almost entirely late replies from late 2007 into early 2008 — short bumps, thank-yous, and 'unhide' requests from members trying to see the hidden download links. It captures the low-effort, gratitude-spam culture typical of big resource-list threads on cheat/warez-adjacent forums of that era, with posters mostly just registering appreciation rather than discussing content.

thats the biggest list of anything ever!! lol— Famousss

dude thats sick!— night2shade

I only need perl— {}JuNNeZ{}

Autodesk Maya 2008 Unlimited warez share

A warez-era share of pro 3D software that turned into a little parade of 'thx man' replies and a mod request.

A post in the Red Light District > Software subforum by prolific uploader LoRd Ragealot sharing a copy of Autodesk Maya 8/2008 Unlimited, padded out with copy-pasted marketing feature blurbs and stock promo images. The replies are the classic low-effort warez-thread chorus: quick thanks, 'great find,' a couple of 'unhide pl0x' requests from members without full access, and one poster claiming he'd been using it for a month and a half. It's a small, ordinary slice of the forum's software-piracy culture rather than anything dramatic — notable mainly for the uploader's self-congratulatory thread title and one member (prinz) casually asking to be made a mod of the Software section in the middle of it.

1 of my best posts!!— LoRd Ragealot

yeah! great find indeed....and who showed you the way?! who was your leader?!— mirco182

unhide pl0x— xStJimmyx

eBruTe CS 1.6/Source cheat thread — late bump page

A years-long CS 1.6/Source cheat thread reduced to one recurring question: 'does this still work?'

This is a late page of a long-running Red Light District > Software thread about the 'eBruTe' tool, most likely a Counter-Strike cheat/hack release popular in the 1.6/Source era. By late 2007 the thread had devolved into a stream of short bump-and-thank-you replies from members hoping the download or method still functioned, a common fate for cheat threads on Fkn0wned as tools aged and got patched. No real drama or technical discussion survives on this page, just the low hum of a community checking in on an old release.

does this still work?— mystical1

THX— asshoel50

FUxK what is it— onepop

Microsoft Office 2007 Enterprise share thread — unhide culture in action

Fourteen guys, one pirated Office suite, and a whole lot of 'unhide plz'

A long-running Red Light District software thread where a member had shared a download for Microsoft Office 2007 Enterprise, and this page catches the tail end of it — page 3 of 4 — filled almost entirely with short 'thanks/unhide' replies from members trying to reveal the hidden download content. It's a snapshot of classic warez-board etiquette: post a one-liner of gratitude to unlock access to the link. Nothing dramatic happens, just the steady hum of a forum doing what Red Light District boards did best.

tanks you— mflames01

unhode plz nd ty in advance— mcglynn05

Thanks, really needed this— Giibi

Invisible Browsing v6.5 release thread

The old IP-masking tool everyone downloaded, half of them couldn't even patch it.

A software release thread in the Red Light District's Software subforum, where regular anarchie65 posted a cracked/patched copy of 'Invisible Browsing v6.5', an IP-masking and browser-privacy tool. The thread ran to at least three pages of the classic download-and-thank cycle: dozens of members dropping quick 'thanks', a few asking for help getting the patch to work, and others mentioning practical (if slightly comedic) reasons for wanting it — dodging ISP throttling, working around a Rapidshare IP ban, or farming region-locked reward-site offers. Pure late-2000s warez-board atmosphere: low effort replies, warn-system tags next to several names, and a couple of now-banned users still in the thread history.

i like this thing it really works PERFECTLY but how to patch it? i dont know how.. can teach?— haha.1

using it for prize rebel so i can do all the US offers— retarded_elephant70

Most i have tried so far havent worked :S 3rd time lucky?— TenSpeed

Youtube Grabber 1.0.0.1 release thread

A guy posts a screenshot of a YouTube downloader and half the board just says 'ty'.

In August 2007, member aKari shared a tool called 'Youtube Grabber 1.0.0.1' with nothing more than a version number and a screenshot link, prompting immediate confusion from posters asking what it actually did. A couple of members clarified it simply let you download videos from YouTube, after which the thread devolved into a long string of low-effort 'thx'/'ty' replies that dragged on from August into November 2007. It's a small, quintessential slice of mid-2000s warez-forum culture: a niche utility, minimal explanation, and a wall of gratitude posts padding out the reply count.

Whats it do.— pwn911

deos this make you an administrator is deos it do nothing. please put in more info callign it a grabber deosnt do much.— flameshot12

it just lets u download vids from youtube. thx— deboy

Full Speed Internet Broadband Connection v2.1 (UNTESTED)

A miracle 'speed booster' download that even its own uploader admitted was untested — and everyone piled on anyway

A member named prinz posted a classic late-2000s internet snake-oil download promising instantly faster browsing, downloads, and streaming, flagged upfront as 'UNTESTED.' The thread is a low-stakes, mildly skeptical chain of replies — some members calling it obvious bullshit, others thanking prinz or promising to test it and report back, with a general shrug of 'might as well try it' energy. Nobody in the visible thread ever confirms whether it actually worked, aside from one lone 'lol it works' from c0rpsegrinder. Pure filler-era forum nostalgia: a shady tool, a skeptical crowd, and dozens of one-line bumps.

Sounds like a load of crap to me..— Monkeygeek

Thanks prinz, i personally also thinks its a load of bullshit but im gonna download and test it! Ill post resultz soon— Paws

lol it works— c0rpsegrinder

Attacker Hackers CD V.1

Some guy dumps a mystery 'hacker toolkit' CD in the warez subforum, half the replies say thanks, the other half say it's probably a virus.

A member called dark_skillz posted a compilation package billed as a collection of 'PC hacking', 'web hacking', and 'e-mail hacking' tools in the Software section of the Red Light District. The replies are the classic warez-thread mix: a bunch of low-effort 'ty'/'thx' posts, some skepticism about whether the download was legit, and at least one member reporting that a virus scan flagged multiple detections in the archive. A few regulars joked about the irony of expecting a 'hacker CD' not to contain malware, while others openly said they wouldn't risk downloading it.

ohmygot is this real ?— __yess__

maybe because its a hackers cd?!!!?!?! Nooooo, would you expect a virus if you downloaded a virus??!— Paws

if i gotto download this im not guna lel, prob a logger— steveo460

Wireless Hacking Live-CD (FBI version)

A shared 'wireless hacking' live-CD thread where half the replies are just people joking the feds were gonna kick your door in

A long-running (3-page) Software subforum thread in the Red Light District section sharing a wireless-hacking live-CD download, tagged jokingly as the 'FBI version.' By this later stretch the thread had mostly devolved into short one-liners: some members hyping it up as cool, others joking nervously that downloading it would get the FBI to raid your house. A few newer/low-post members just dropped quick thank-yous or asked for hidden content to be unhidden. It's a small, low-effort tail-end of a bigger download thread rather than a big drama moment.

i wouldnt download this its the fbi FBI they'll bust into your house catch you in a porno crysis— IPwn3d

looks cool thanks F— Famousss

ty unhide plz:) sound so cool— cheaterjoe1

Many Hacks (RapidShare Dump Thread)

Someone dropped a rapidshare link full of 'hacks' and the whole board said thanks

A member named prinz posted a hidden RapidShare link claiming to offer a bundle of hacks, framed as an attempt to get modded in the Software subforum. The thread got a string of short, low-effort replies from regulars thanking him or joking about using it, with even an admin (Shifty.) chiming in approvingly. It's a pretty typical Red Light District 'here's some stuff, enjoy' thread rather than any real discussion.

just choose what you want to download— prinz

sweet, now im going to hack my neighbours— banak

Cool nice find dude— Shifty.

Windows Genuine/Activation Cracking Pack Thread

The one where a member handed out a one-stop 'make Windows genuine' pack and the whole Red Light District said thanks

A late-December 2007 post in the Software subforum of the Red Light District section offering a tool claimed to activate and validate various Windows versions (Vista, XP variants, Longhorn). It's a classic low-effort 'release' thread from the era's warez-adjacent forum culture, followed by a dozen short replies that are mostly one-word thanks, emoticons, and casual chatter rather than any real discussion. Nothing dramatic happened here — it's a mundane but representative snapshot of how these boards traded activation/cracking tools openly back then.

This App Enables you to Activate and Validate All Windows OS— anarchie65

i open the unhidden content— rangadrum

thx need this^^— .:BaTmAn:.

Dreamweaver CS3 CRACK

A quick warez drop in the Red Light District — and a round of 'thanks bro' from the regulars

A short, low-key thread in Fkn0wned's Red Light District > Software subforum where member blackxthink posted a crack for Adobe Dreamweaver CS3, with a note to keep a backup of the original exe. The rest of the thread is the classic pattern of forum life at the time: a handful of members dropping by to say thanks, ask for a re-upload/unhide, and share Xfire handles. Nothing dramatic — just a snapshot of everyday file-sharing activity typical of the Red Light District section.

Don't forget to keep a copy of your old dreamweaver.exe— blackxthink

unhide? 8D please and thank you.— Josh Terrible {HxC}

hey man thanks! woot woot! fkn0wned ftw!— Josh Terrible {HxC}

McAfee Total Protection share with sneaky 'thanks' rapidshare link

A member drops a McAfee download and slips in a sneaky 'thank you' rapidshare link — classic 2007 forum hustle.

This is a 2007 Software subforum post in Gametration's 'Red Light District' section, where user Sonikk shared a mounted-image copy of McAfee Total Protection with no serial needed. The reply chain is the usual short courtesy bump — a string of 'ty', 'thx', and 'cool thx' from members across CS 1.6, CS:S, and WoW crowds. Nothing dramatic happens; it's a low-stakes software-sharing thread typical of the era's cheat/warez-adjacent forums, notable mostly for the cheeky 'download this to say thanks' link Sonikk tacked onto a legit-sounding antivirus share.

NO SERIAL OR CRACK REQUIRED— Sonikk

Feel like saying thanks for the download? Then download this file to support me— Sonikk

cool thx EDIT: whats the pass????— Master_Killer

"get free $, i had tested - its work" - the A.W.Surveys referral pitch thread

A brand-new member with 20 posts swore his survey-site referral link paid out $27, and the forum did not believe him for one second.

A low-post-count member named kib0rg posted a classic 2007-era 'get paid to fill out surveys' referral pitch (A.W.Surveys), claiming he'd personally cashed out and pasted the site's full FAQ to back it up. Regulars immediately clocked it as spam/scammy self-promotion, with one member noting kib0rg was already suspected of spreading viruses, and another simply replying 'fuck you!'. The thread fizzles into a few dismissive one-liners ('Lol, surveys', 'wtf') before dying out, a pretty typical fate for referral-link spam on the Red Light District > Software board.

i had get 27$ for free its easy - only register 1 free account in my link, and i have small bonus and you!— kib0rg

fuck you!— __yess__

Noob is already suspected for giving virusses and shit, he as 14 posts, So don't listen to this fag;)— FL_Freak

Adobe CS3 Master Collection warez drop

A one-line software drop that turned into a chorus of 'ty', 'w00t', and one guy hoping it had Premiere

A short, low-effort release thread in the Red Light District's Software subforum where user Peski-Ruski posted the Adobe CS3 Master Collection with the terse title 'bitch.' The replies are pure late-2000s forum filler: quick thanks, hype, and one member asking if Adobe Premiere was included. Nothing dramatic happened here—it's a snapshot of the everyday warez-sharing culture that filled this corner of the forum.

w00t bitch?— banak

i hope it has adobe premiere!— Archies

MSN Webcam Hack (flagged as virus)

A 4-page "MSN webcam hack" thread that was mostly people saying thanks, asking if it worked, and one guy calling out the download as a virus.

A long-running thread in the Red Light District > Software subforum shared some kind of tool claiming to let users spy on or access others' MSN webcams. As with a lot of these old download threads, the replies are mostly one-liners: thanks, bumps, requests to 'unhide' hidden content, and skepticism about whether it actually worked. At least one member flagged the file as a virus after trying it, which cuts through the hype typical of these Red Light District posts.

It's a virus don't download.— Pyroxic

Server Destruction tool release thread (tail end)

A years-long 'Server Destrustion' tool/release thread limps to its final page — mostly just members saying thanks and asking what it even does.

This is the tail end of a long-running thread in the Red Light District > Software section of Fkn0wned.Com, an early-2010s gaming/cheat-scene forum. By page 6 the thread has devolved into a string of short replies — thanks, praise, and at least one member asking what the shared tool actually does — rather than substantive discussion. It captures the typical rhythm of these boards: a popular release draws a long tail of bump-and-thank posts from regulars long after the original content was posted.

dude awesome— night2shade

So What exactly does it do?— {}JuNNeZ{}

MadCrackeR Upload Thread

A cracked tool drop that kept randoms saying 'ty ty ty ty' for a full year straight.

A software release thread in the Red Light District > Software section, sharing a tool called 'MadCrackeR' (billed as 'The Cracker Machine') via an MUpload.com link. Posted by member afteryou back in February 2007, the thread quietly kept pulling replies through the rest of 2007, mostly one-line thank-yous, 'does it work?' checks, and a few skeptical or hype reactions. It's a good snapshot of the low-effort, high-volume bump culture typical of Red Light District release threads on this forum.

RapidShare Automatic Downloader Tool Share (2007)

An early tool promised to automate RapidShare downloads — and the thread instantly turned into a scam-check ritual.

In July 2007, Supervisor DCLXVI posted a shared tool ("[Forumwz]") claiming to batch-download or queue multiple RapidShare links from a text file. The thread quickly filled with the classic Red Light District pattern: people asking if it actually worked, someone immediately suspicious it was a fake or malicious 'rapidshit' link, then a wave of one-word thanks and 'nice/ty' replies once it was vouched as legit. It's a small, unremarkable but very representative snapshot of the forum's software-sharing subculture and its casual trust economy.

Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 ISO RIP + Crack

That time a Fkn0wned mod dropped a full MCE 2005 review-slash-download and half the board just wanted it for their old laptop

A 2007 post by supervisor DCLXVI in the Red Light District's Software subforum, offering a ripped/cracked ISO of Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 alongside a genuinely detailed writeup covering TV-tuner cards, remote controls, MPEG2 codecs, and hardware requirements. The thread reads like a mini tech-review article bundled with a warez drop, and the replies are the usual low-effort thanks and 'sick'/'nice' chatter typical of software-sharing threads on the site. One user jokes about already having 'Media Center Vista Edition,' prompting a mildly confused follow-up, and the thread trails off with drive-by one-word bumps months later into December.

aw nice. to bad i just installed Media Center Vista edition on mah Media Center computr.— AveLoN

Media center vista? hm never heard of it is it new?— ynaggo

sweet, ive been looking for this— reaper-Z

Shifty's Teamspeak Hacker Pack: the eternal 'unhide' bump thread

Seven pages deep, one lonely 'unhide' request at a time — a 2008 Teamspeak hack pack refuses to die.

This was the tail end of a long-running Red Light District > Software thread sharing 'Shifty's Teamspeak Hacker Pack,' a pirated software/tools bundle typical of fkn0wned's warez corner. By page seven the actual content was long buried under a wall of low-effort bumps — 'thx,' 'unhide,' 'great share man' — from members trying to reveal hidden download links. It's less a discussion than a ritual: newcomers filing in month after month just to say thanks and beg for visibility on an old post.

thx mate wow great work— sigismunt

unhide— craigp123

Rapidshare Download Direct 1.14 - Version Squabble

Two members claim the same download tool, argue over version numbers, someone catches a virus

A member named prinz posted a 'cracked' download-accelerator tool for Rapidshare, only to get called out by InzaneHacker for reposting a duplicate of a thread InzaneHacker had already put up. A minor spat broke out over whether the tool was actually a newer '1.14' or just a mislabeled '1.04', with other members jumping in to enjoy the 'cat fight.' One user reported getting a virus from the download and another complained about corrupted archive files, adding a dose of typical Red Light District software-sharing chaos to the thread.

Dude Prinz... I already posted it o.O— InzaneHacker

ooo cat fight lol— scuddzilla

i got a virus from this or downloading something using this...— c0rpsegrinder

12,000 PhotoShop Shapes

A user named 'Industry' drops 12k Photoshop shapes on the GFX crowd and everyone just says thanks

A short, low-drama software-sharing thread in the Red Light District's Software subforum, where staff member Industry posted a RapidShare link to a massive pack of 12,000 Photoshop shapes for the site's graphic design crowd. Replies were brief and appreciative, with a few regulars and an up-and-coming GFX member chiming in with quick thanks. A fairly ordinary but representative slice of the forum's GFX/software-sharing culture from early 2008.

Fraps 2.9.1 Cracked!

A cracked screen-recorder upload turns into a two-month chorus of 'ty' and dead-link pleas.

In the Red Light District's Software subforum, member blackxthink posted a cracked copy of the screen-recording tool Fraps 2.9.1 in late 2007, later dropping a replacement Megaupload link when the first died. The thread ran from November 2007 into January 2008 with over a dozen members chiming in, mostly one-word thanks, hype, and requests to 'unhide' the download link. It's a small but classic slice of the forum's warez-sharing culture, low on drama but full of the low-effort bump culture typical of these download threads.

God is a Girl!— Megabyte

fucking a i need this to work— CobraSkin

I love you— Loucouss

Administrator Password Hack (Windows Boot-Disk Trick)

The 2008 thread that shared a boot-disk trick for resetting Windows admin passwords — and the replies are pure old-forum gold.

Posted by uploader LoRd Ragealot in the Red Light District > Software subforum, this thread shared a bootable utility said to reset local Windows 2000/XP administrator passwords without knowing the original one. It's a classic 'warez board' upload post, complete with a screenshot and a short description, followed by a handful of members dropping quick thanks and rep. Nothing eventful happened beyond typical appreciation replies — a small, ordinary utility-sharing thread typical of the era.

thankssofuckinmuchdude i LUB YOU— xStJimmyx

BitDefender Total Security 2008 giveaway/share thread

A 2007 antivirus promo post that somehow got half the forum saying 'ty' and 'w00t'

A member named corbalz posted a promotional rundown of BitDefender Total Security 2008 in the Software subforum of the Red Light District section, touting its antivirus, firewall, anti-phishing, and 'Gamer Mode' features. The replies are almost entirely short, low-effort thank-you posts from a rotating cast of regulars ('thx', 'ty', 'w00t'), typical of cheat-scene download/share threads where the actual content mattered less than bumping the post count. Nothing controversial happens here — it's a pretty ordinary snapshot of forum culture circa late 2007, full of Xfire handles, warn-system icons, and CS 1.6/CS:S players killing time between matches.

finally now thats an anti virus!!!!— abusayaff

Hack Tools, Keyloggers, Crackers and MORE!

One megathread, a thousand-plus tools — password crackers, WEP breakers, keyloggers, the whole 2007 script-kiddie toolbox in one post.

A Supervisor named DCLXVI posted a sprawling master-list dump in the Red Light District > Software section, cataloguing hundreds of downloadable security/hacking utilities: password and hash crackers, WiFi/WEP cracking tools, NT/2000 exploit and rootkit utilities, keyloggers, network sniffers, and application password-recovery tools, many with Spanish-language descriptions. It reads like a classic mid-2000s 'ultimate hacking tools' link compilation typical of the era's underground/warez forum culture. The reply chain is short and low-effort — a one-word 'cool' and a dismissive jab from a staffer calling it a 'pointless thread' — suggesting the post was seen as an oversized, low-value link dump even by regulars.

LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS OF HACKING TOOLS! 1000+— DCLXVI
