D3D Starter-kit v3.0b

A 2007 Direct3D hooking framework drop that had half the Programming board saying thanks in unison.

This is a release thread in Fkn0wned's Technology > Programming section for 'D3D Starter-kit v3.0b,' a Direct3D 8/9 interfacing framework credited to Azorbix with a long list of contributors. The opening post details version history, bugfixes, and setup requirements (Visual C++, DirectX9 SDK) for building either an injected hook or a standalone wrapper DLL. The replies are mostly short, appreciative posts from members thanking the author and reporting basic issues, giving it that classic era-appropriate 'cheat scene' toolkit-release vibe rather than any real discussion or drama.

Basic wall hack tut

A 2006 D3D9 wallhack tutorial thread — half coding lesson, half community time capsule

Dragon13 posts a step-by-step Direct3D9 tutorial for building a basic wallhack using AZorbix's d3d starter kit, covering stream source hooking, DrawIndexedPrimitive, and bonus render-state tricks (transparency, wireframe, fullbright, fog disable) credited to ASUS, Azorbix, and g-d. The reply section is a classic mixed-skill forum moment: a low-post newbie admits she can't code but offers to help with the website, a longtime member jokes about how overcomplicated it all looks, and a staff member drops in without much comment. A later edit by moderator ho0k- in 2007 fixes a dead download link, showing the thread stayed referenced long after its original post.

MSN Exploit Thread

The old 'crash your friend's MSN with a nametag prank' thread — pure 2007 chaos.

A classic mid-2000s prank thread in the Programming subforum: Christobell shared a trick where pasting a certain string into your MSN Messenger display name or a personal message would crash a friend's Messenger client. Bucketface, a senior [FkN] Crew member, vouched that the accompanying fix/removal file was safe, and other members chimed in with a folder-deletion method to undo the crash. The thread devolved into the usual low-effort 'thanks,' 'lol,' and 'gonna try this on my dumb friend' replies typical of the era's harmless troll-tool sharing culture.

It will close there msn and they will never get back on it again unless they have over 2 brain cells.— Christobell

[SOURCES] CS1.5 / CS1.6 — the big source code dump thread

One guy posted a link to 280+ CS1.5/1.6 C++ source codes and the thread just kept going for four pages of 'ty' and 'unhide plz'

Started by moderator DCLXVI (posting as 'Cheesus' in one quoted reply) in June 2007, this Programming subforum thread shared a hidden link to a large collection of Counter-Strike 1.5/1.6 C++ source codes hosted off-site, and asked staff to sticky it. It became a long-running bump thread that stretched into December 2007, with new members trickling in for months mostly to say thanks, ask for the hidden content to be unhidden, or note the sources were already outdated ('too bad they're a year old'). It's a pretty pure example of the era's forum economy: a valuable resource post buried under reply-to-unlock etiquette and low-effort gratitude spam.

Can a moderator sticky this please. There are over 280 C++ source codes for Cs1.5 and Cs1.6 (mostly 1.6).— DCLXVI

Minesweeper Trainer Tutorial Sparks Authorship Brawl

A shared Minesweeper trainer tutorial turns into a full-blown authorship brawl when the original coder himself shows up to claim credit.

Posted in the Technology > Programming section, [LiP]STicK. shared a reposted reverse-engineering tutorial explaining the theory behind turning Minesweeper into its own trainer via entry-point patching and code caves, explicitly noting 'Not made by me.' The thread took a turn when a brand-new member, Ksbunker, showed up claiming to be the actual author, sparking a credibility fight with veteran member 'laptop' (Sickenin!!!!) and moderator DCLXVI over whether a low-post-count account could be trusted. Ksbunker fired back hard, pointing to his username embedded in the posted code as proof and mocking laptop's post history in the warez/porn subforums. The exchange is a classic slice of cheat-scene forum drama: technical tutorial sharing collides with ego, authorship disputes, and low-effort accusations.

The Fkn0wned Virus Collection Thread

That one thread where a coder just... dropped a folder of self-made viruses for anyone to send to their 'foes'

Started by member Gate Guardian in July 2007, this was a running release thread in the Programming subforum where homemade prank/malicious executables (things like an input-blocking notepad-spam bomb and an IE-window-flooding shock-site tool) were packaged up and shared for members to fire off at people they didn't like. The thread ran for five pages and months, stretching into October 2007, with other members chiming in and presumably contributing or requesting more payloads. By the time later replies rolled in, the original download links were already dead — a common fate for this kind of hosted-on-a-random-site content.

Simple Batch 'Virus' Tutorial

The obligatory 2007 'hacker' rite of passage: a goofy batch-file 'virus' that spams Internet Explorer and threatens a fake shutdown countdown.

A member calling himself ~1337H4x0R~ (IxPKxALL) posted a beginner-tier Windows batch script tutorial that faked a shutdown countdown and spammed launches of Internet Explorer, with a throwaway line about making it 'actually' destructive by adding a delete command. Replies were unimpressed but polite — one poster called it old news everyone already knew, and another (Exover) one-upped it with a flashier 'better method' version featuring color codes, a custom title, and links to an old fkn0wned-branded joke site. The thread is a classic slice of mid-2000s script-kiddie forum culture: low-stakes 'haxing' bravado, goofy leetspeak signatures, and members riffing on each other's code for fun rather than any real malicious intent.

The Classic Hide-Tag 'Unhide' Bump Thread

Five pages of "unhide" and "ty" for a mystery toolset nobody remembers the contents of

This was a long-running Programming subforum thread offering some kind of 'hacking tool set' download, the kind of post that used forum hide-tags to force replies before revealing content. By the time this archived page picks up (posts #61-87, spanning January-February 2008), the thread had devolved into a wall of one-word 'unhide,' 'thx,' and 'nice' replies from members just trying to unlock the download. It captures the everyday texture of Fkn0wned's Technology > Programming board rather than any single dramatic event — low-effort bumping, a rotating cast of Noobs and low-post members, and the site's signature tagline changing between page loads ('We Moderate Your Fun!' vs the standard welcome banner).

TeamSpeak 2.0 Remote DoS Exploit Thread

The old TeamSpeak-killer thread everyone bumped just to say 'thx' and grab the hidden download link

A long-running Programming subforum thread on Fkn0wned.com sharing a remote denial-of-service exploit for the Windows release of TeamSpeak 2.0, with the actual content stashed behind an 'unhide' spoiler tag. Most of the multi-page thread is filler replies from members unlocking the hidden post, thanking the OP, or asking basic questions about how to run it via Perl. It's a classic mid-2000s cheat-forum artifact: a niche exploit release surrounded by low-effort bumps, Xfire tags, and noob member profiles rather than real technical discussion.

Black Security Tool Pack (RS Link Dump)

One RapidShare link, an entire 2007 script-kiddie toolbox — RATs, keyloggers, binders, brute forcers, and the odd Sasser worm thrown in.

A 2007 post in the Programming subforum by user .Smurf sharing a massive compiled archive of hacking/security tools via a RapidShare link — trojans, keyloggers, binders, brute forcers, CGI scanners, virus builders, MSN hack tools, port scanners, and nukers/flooders, listed out in exhaustive CODE-block fashion. Classic era-appropriate 'skid toolkit' dump, the kind of megapack that circulated widely across cheat/hacking forums at the time. .Smurf posts under the Xfire handle 'acidvipez' and signs off with swagger. Notable mainly as a snapshot of the mid-2000s script-kiddie tool culture rather than for any drama.

Battlefield 2 Aimbot Source Tease

A banned member teased a leaked BF2 D3D hack source — did it ever actually drop?

A thread in the Technology > Programming section where user ho0k- offered to share source code for a Battlefield 2 aimbot (described as a D3D/Direct3D hack with extra functions), contingent on community interest. The thread ran three pages, typical of the forum's cheat-sharing culture at the time. Both the original poster and an early replier were already tagged as 'Banned' members, which was a common status on this forum.

Half-Life Source Code Leak Thread

Someone dropped the leaked Half-Life source in the Programming forum and it kept the thread alive for months

A Programming board thread on Fkn0wned.com where user [Kc]aC!d posted a download link (password-protected, per site convention) claiming to share Half-Life source code in C++. The thread limped along for a couple months with a handful of members bumping it with low-effort 'thanks' and 'nice' replies, plus a random newcomer 'Godmin' resurfacing it much later. Typical of the era's scene forums, it mixes casual code/leak sharing with the site's usual ad banners for its hack-selling storefront and IRC channel.

Snagit Keygen thread — classic hide-content-to-unlock necrobump

A five-page keygen thread that was really just a hundred noobs saying 'unhide' and 'thanks'

A long-running Programming subforum thread sharing a keygen for the screen-capture tool Snagit, originally posted by DeMeNt3d with a hidden reply-to-unlock component. By page 5 the thread had devolved into its natural late-life state: a stream of one-post-wonders and low-post noobs posting 'unhide', 'thanks', or 'muhahah' just to unlock the hidden content. It captures the classic fkn0wned dynamic of hide-content-behind-a-reply threads keeping old download threads alive years after the original post.

Fkn' Fake Login..

A member pitches building a fake-login credential stealer disguised as a 'wallhack' download — right in the Programming subforum.

In the Programming subforum, member Klud floats an early-stage project idea: a fake login screen meant to harvest whoever logs into it, dressed up with a bogus wallhack/aimbot to lure people into signing in. He shares a screenshot of just the login button and says the rest is unbuilt. Other members, including forum owner TuxifieD, press him on what exactly the tool is supposed to do and steal, with Klud clarifying he's aiming for passwords, keystrokes, and system info. A pretty typical slice of the site's 'cheat scene' underbelly — half bravado, half half-finished tinkering.

Visual Basic 6 rapidshare drop

A user named laptops dumped a Visual Basic 6 download link and 'beginner tut' — cue two full pages of one-word 'unhide' replies chasing hidden content.

This Programming subforum thread was a classic download-share post: member 'laptops' posted a rapidshare link to Visual Basic 6 along with a beginner tutorial, likely hidden behind spoiler/hide tags as was standard practice on the site. The rest of the thread is filled almost entirely with short 'unhide'/'thanks' replies from members trying to reveal the hidden content, stretching across at least two pages over several months (Aug 2007 to May 2008). It's less a technical discussion and more a snapshot of forum culture around gated downloads and low-effort bumping.

A member's first-ever Visual Basic app: a homemade random password generator, shared proudly with the source code attached.

After feedback, he pushed a v2 update letting users pick between 6, 8, 8, or 9-character passwords, and posted the full source code inline for others to see and comment on.

zubetube's Work-in-Progress Batch Script for Trashing Computers

A member shared a half-finished batch file explicitly built to mess up whoever ran it — and asked the forum to help him perfect it.

In the Programming subforum, user zubetube posted a rough, unfinished Windows batch script explicitly labeled as something to 'kill computers with,' featuring forced reboots, task-killing, persistence via scheduled tasks, and spammy branding for fkn0wned.com. He admitted it was incomplete and asked other members for help getting around Ctrl+C interrupting it. The lone reply, from Exover, was a simple 'nice one' — otherwise the thread got little traction, a small artifact of the site's casual malware-tinkering culture.

Another Batch File Prank Script

A little .bat script thread from 2007 that turned into a low-key 'is this the same as before?' shrug-fest

In the Programming subforum, member IxPKxALL posted another batch-file 'virus' script, a common genre of goofy DOS-based prank/troll tools shared on the forum at the time. A handful of regulars replied with quick reactions, a bit of troubleshooting banter about a reboot command, and requests to unhide content, while others questioned whether it was just a rehash of an earlier post. The thread is short and low-drama, typical of the casual script-sharing culture in this corner of Fkn0wned's Technology board.

CPanel 10.8.x Exploit thread

A user called Afteryou posted about a cPanel 10.8.x exploit in the Technology > Programming section, drawing a handful of quick curious replies from other members over the following day. The thread is short and mostly reaction posts rather than deep discussion, typical of the era's casual 'look what I found' security/exploit-sharing culture on cheat and hacking-adjacent forums. No real technical breakdown survives in the visible content, just the usual back-and-forth of interest and skepticism.

Ultra Hackers AIO Pack: 153 Tools in One RapidShare Dump

A 2008 grab-bag rapidshare dump of 153 late-2000s 'hacking tools' — nostalgia bait for anyone who remembers the wild-west Programming subforum.

A March 2008 post by user ThisIsSparta shared a RapidShare-hosted archive bundling over 150 assorted late-2000s utilities — password crackers, scanners, spam/flood tools, keygens, and other 'script kiddie' era software typical of mid-2000s cheat/hack forums. The thread drew a steady trickle of low-effort 'thanks' replies over the following weeks, a request to re-upload a dead/premium-only link, and one skeptical member noting the tools were likely outdated and non-functional by May 2008. It's a fairly typical snapshot of the forum's Technology > Programming section: casual tool-sharing culture, minimal moderation, and short-lived hype around aging AIO packs.

The thread drew a handful of quick 'thanks' replies from other members, plus some later confusion when a download link went dead and had to be unhidden. It's a small, typical-of-its-era post reflecting the forum's IRC/toolkit sharing culture rather than any major event.

List Of Compilers (page 5 of 5)

The tail end of a long-running compiler roundup thread, mostly folks saying thanks and asking for reps

This is the final page of a multi-page thread in the Programming subforum of Fkn0wned.com's Technology section, apparently a resource list of compilers shared for members. By this point the substantive content has scrolled off and what remains is the thread's tail: users unhiding the linked content, thanking the OP, and one poster fishing for reputation points.

First Python Script (That a Desktop Shortcut Would've Replaced)

A brand-new Ubuntu user shares his first Python script — then admits a desktop shortcut would've done the same job.

A member with the handle BEG! posts about just installing Ubuntu and writing his first Python script, meant to shortcut a long remote desktop command on Linux. He immediately worries he posted in the wrong subforum, and after a slow reply from another member offering to check it out, BEG! circles back nearly two weeks later to sheepishly conclude the whole script was pointless since a simple desktop launcher would've worked just as well. A small, low-stakes, very early-programmer-era thread capturing the casual, self-deprecating tone of the Technology > Programming board.

Visual Basic For Dummies

Someone shares a Wikipedia-style VB primer, and a decade of "thanks" replies pile up like a time capsule

In this Programming subforum thread, member tracyfan_1 posted a fairly generic overview of Visual Basic (its history, RAD/GUI features, comparison to C++/Java/C#) presumably alongside or in reference to some kind of shared learning resource. The rest of the thread is a long string of members dropping quick 'thanks', 'cheers', and 'need this' replies — a very typical low-effort bump pattern for resource threads on this forum. One member, chooken, added a genuinely useful caveat about VB being easily decompiled, meaning source code isn't protected. Otherwise it's a quiet, unremarkable thread mostly notable for the sheer number of one-word gratitude posts.

A member named kepler asks in the Programming subforum whether an existing CS:S hack (namechecking the well-regarded 'HL2Hook' series) can be edited or rebuilt, and what compiler to use. milkrulz04 chimes in recommending Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 and mentions decompiling the DLL as another route. It's a short, casual four-post exchange typical of the era's DIY cheat-tinkering culture, with kepler adding an offhand note about never having been caught using an old version.

A few members replied with brief thanks or comments about learning from a book, one apologized for reviving an old thread months later, and the last reply came in as a 'Yesterday' timestamp years after the original post — a classic slow-burn necro thread rather than a big event.

A member named exon posted in the Programming subforum asking for help after following the classic 'Sams Teach Yourself C++' tutorial, only to hit a cascade of missing/ordinal DLL errors trying to compile and run 'Hello.exe'. It's a small, mundane tech-support thread typical of the Technology board, with one reply from zmuck pointing toward a Microsoft Foundation Library project setting. A quiet little snapshot of a teenager's first steps into programming on a gaming forum in 2007.

Norton Antivirus is retarded, need help

It's a short, single-post thread with no visible replies captured, typical of the low-effort help requests that filled Fkn0wned's Technology section. A small window into the site's cheat/bot-hunting culture beyond its usual Counter-Source focus.

Can someone help me find a bot for Guild Wars i've searchd high and low an need help now— andy602

[E-Book] Visual Basic.NET Black Book

A crewman drops a VB.NET textbook link in the Programming subforum, circa 2007.

A short, simple share-post in the Technology > Programming board where user Sonikk, a member of the [FkN] Crew staff group, posts a link to the 'Visual Basic.NET Black Book' e-book for other members to use. It's a one-post thread with no visible replies in the archived content, typical of the low-key resource-sharing that filled out this section of the forum alongside the more infamous cheat/gaming boards.

Hey! I just found this and i wanted to share it with you!— Sonikk

Gametration.com Programming Forum (2008) + Fkn0wned 'Introduce Yourself' snapshot

Wall hacks, bat viruses, and a wide-eyed VB tutorial — the birthplace of a whole scene's programming corner.

This capture bundles the Gametration.com Programming subforum (early 2008) with a later snapshot of Fkn0wned's 'Introduce Yourself' board (2011), showing the lineage between the two communities. The Programming section was a grab-bag of amateur coding: pinned tutorial megathreads, Direct3D starter kits, CS 1.5/1.6 source dumps, compiler lists, 'virus collection' threads, and basic wall-hack write-ups sit alongside beginner posts about Python, Java, JavaScript, and Visual Basic. The Fkn0wned section is just the standard new-member welcome wagon, a steady stream of 'hey all' posts greeted by regulars, showing the community's more social, day-to-day side. Together they capture the classic 2000s-cheat-forum mix of low-level hacking curiosity, script kiddie tooling, and casual forum camaraderie.
