ScreenSpy – New Meterpreter Script

A new Meterpreter script named “ScreenSpy” was developed and added to Metasploit. This Meterpreter script captures images from a remote victim system, at a predefined interval, and displays the image sequence on your attack system.

Leaked: Windows 8 "system reset" screenshot

A screenshot showing off a "Restore to original factory settings" feature in Windows 8 has leaked. The feature wasrumored earlier this month and was described as allowing the user to reset the system to factory settings in just two minutes.

The leaked screenshot, courtesy of Win7China, plainly shows such an option below the already-available System Restore feature in Windows. If you can't see the screenshot, there's a "Open system reset" button to the right of the following description:

Restore to original factory settings
Remove all programs you've installed and restore default Windows settings. You can choose to keep your user accounts and personal files.

We seriously doubt the reset process will take two minutes on your typical hardware configuration. It should take significantly longer to remove all installed software and return Windows to its default settings.

Such a feature could be very useful for those times that you want to reinstall the operating system for your friend or family member. Even if it doesn't take just two minutes, it will certainly be faster than reinstalling the whole operating system.

It's not clear whether the feature will require the original Windows 8 disc, and given how early we are in the development cycle, if it will even be included. That being said, if it does what it claims to, we hope Microsoft won't scrap it.
