Orange County Computer Hacker Sentenced to Prison for Breaking into University Computers, NASA Systems
A
Jason Allen Diekman, 20, was sentenced on three separate computer hacking cases, one of which involved the use of stolen credit card numbers in an attempt to wire transfer money through the Western Union Corporation.
Diekman was sentenced by United States District Judge Dean D. Pregerson, who also ordered Diekman to pay a total of $87,736.29 in restitution to the victims of his crimes. In addition, once released from prison, Judge Pregerson imposed severe restrictions on Diekman’s use of computers while he is under supervised release for a period of three years.
In the first case, Diekman pleaded guilty in November 2000 to charges of hacking into NASA computers and using stolen credit card numbers to purchase electronic equipment. In that case, Diekman pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor count of intentional unauthorized access of a government computer; one felony count of knowingly transmitting a program, code and command which recklessly caused damage to a computer; and one felony charge of unauthorized use of a credit card to obtain over $6,000 in electronic equipment.
By pleading guilty in this first case, Diekman admitted he illegally accessed government computers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, NASA computers at Stanford University, and numerous other government and university computer systems. Diekman, who used the nicknames "Shadow Knight" and "Dark Lord," gained unauthorized "root-level" access to at least three computer systems at JPL. This hacking activity gave him control over all aspects of the computers, including the ability to modify files and alter security on the systems. The NASA computer systems at Stanford were used to develop sensitive satellite flight control software used to control NASA satellites. As part of his guilty plea, Diekman admitted that he had caused $17,000 in damage to these computers.
During the investigation into this first case, federal agents discovered evidence on Diekman’s computers indicating that he intercepted usernames and passwords from universities, including

Creating A Simple Web Browser
First of all, start a new project in VB2008 and name it with any name you like. Here I am just using the name webbrowser. Change the name of Form1 to webbrowser and the text property to My First Web Browser and set its size property to 640,480. Next, you need to add an engine so that your web browser can connect to the Internet, and this very engine is the WebBrowser control, located on the Toolbox on the left side, set the size property to 600,400. Next, drag a text box and place it at the top of the WebBrowser control, this will be the address bar where the user can enter the URL. Lastly, place a command button beside the text box and label it as Go. The design interface is shown below: The code for the web browser is surprisingly simple, it is only a single line code! Double click on the Go button and key in the following code: Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click myWebBrowser.Navigate(TextBox1.Text) End Sub End Class
Now run the the program , type in any URL and click the Go button. You will be able to browse any web page you want. |
