GOOD !NO REALM DOWN! METHOD

[Blackghost07]

*This tutorial is specificaly directed towards Diablo II. You can do this with any other program, but you'll have to modify some of the steps.*

Step 1: Download SocksCap from :
http://archive.socks.permeo.com/cgi-bin/download.pl and install it.

Step 2: Open SocksCap

Step 3: Accept the T.O.S.

Step 4: Click OK when it tells you when it will expire. Then when it asks if you would like to modify the settings now, click yes.

Step 5: In the field "SOCKS Server:" enter the socks server you are going to use. In the field "Port:" enter the port of the socks server you are using (the default port for a socks server is 1080). Make sure that the socks server you are using is either a Socks 4 or Socks 4/5 server (both v4 and v5 are useable on that server). Make sure that the bullet next to "Socks Version 4" is selected. In the field "SOCKS User ID:" anything is acceptable. Put your name, or your nickname, or simply put "none". Click "Apply" and "OK" and proceed.

Step 6: Press the "New" Button.

Step 7: For "Profile Name:" you can enter anything, for this tutorial I'm going to use "Diablo II". In "Command Line:" you can either type out the path to your Diablo II file or you can click the Browse button and find it easier. If you used the Browse method, then the "Working Directory" was automatically filled in for you. If you typed it in manually, you can leave the "Working Directory" blank and click OK. It will fill it in for you.

If it is correct, press OK and procede to the next step.

Side Note: If you run Diablo II in windowed mode, or use the -mpq or other extensions, you can edit them in the "Command Line:" part.

Step 7: Now select the profile that you made. Click on the button that says "Run!" labeled below.

Step 8: Play the game (or use the application) as you usually would. But, now you are connecting to the game server through the socks server, which acts as a "inbetween man". The game server see's the socks server's IP instead of yours. Viola! You got around the IP ban.

-------------------------

If you do not connect to the game server, one of three things could casue it.

1) The socks server you are trying to use is dead right then.
2) The socks server you are trying to use is not the right version (Socks v4 / v5).
3) You messed up on one or more of the steps.

If the connection is very laggy, that just means that you are using a slow socks server. Try a different one. You can use programs to check the timeout of a socks server. A timeout of three seconds or less is good.

[Dragnskull]

this is interesting kinda... but as said, can someone confirm?

 

[Johnny]

a) i wouldnt trust a download from a 2poster
b) wtf is socks?
c) how does it work, ie. how does using this program make you not have realm down?

 

[Hitsua]

In case you didn't know...

SOCKS is a networking proxy protocol that enables hosts on one side of a SOCKS server to gain full access to hosts on the other side of the SOCKS server without requiring direct IP-reachability. SOCKS is often used as a network firewall, redirecting connection requests from hosts on opposite sides of a SOCKS server. The SOCKS server authenticates and authorizes requests, establishes a proxy connection, and relays data between hosts.

You could do this with any other socks application, he just happened to give you one.

Hitsua is right

Bio.Hazard:

a) i wouldnt trust a download from a 2poster

its not Blackghost07 that did make the program.. (what i know of anyway)
gonna try this..

and i did try this.. i'm gonna confirm this 100%.. it works.. thanks Blackghost07

 

[Hitsua]

At any rate, if somone spent that much time on a website just you screw you over, you owe it to them to let them overtake you.

 

[HoAx(FF)]

hehe.. i guess your right Hitsua.. but it works.. so he didn't screw anybody..

*yet anyway* :halo

 

[COTA-GoD]

its just using proxies x|

 

[Dragnskull]

that what i figured lee...

one thing though...wouldnt this still give rd? i mean it would blcok whatever proxy u use, and ud have to change it , which would basically be the same as having to reconnect to the net to change IP, wouldnt it?

 

[HoAx(FF)]

if you mean like, if i'm going to use bot with one of the proxy ips.. and getting rd there.. and still using that proxy ip, that ip still have rd ofcuz.. but then you can change again^^

 

[binny]

b) wtf is socks?

lol. sorry.
socks are just a type of proxy

this is/used to be a sticky at Eon aka bh.

 

[Dragnskull]

so this means shit to ppl lik eme, that dont have static ip's...:S

http://www.proxylists.net/

go there if you want lists of proxies.

 

[chocofilez]

Wait. can any one explain what a proxy is?

 

[Hitsua]

Yes, but if you need to know, then I'd avoid this method all together.

 

[chocofilez]

even so, itd still be nice to understand.

 

[binny]

It's a server placed between a user's machine and the Internet. It can act as a firewall to provide protection and as a cache area to speed up Web page display. If you want to be a 'ghost' on the internet that a proxy would be a good way to go. Im not normally good at defining stuff but it lets you use its address instead of your own.

 

[Hitsua]

Such as connecting to a server in China to conduct random illegal activities.

socks 4 n 5 are the kind u needed to use for brute forcing. i dont think he is lying i remember downloading socks cap a while back before
