Hidden code in emails

Hidden code in emails

am 17.04.2008 11:43:43 von daniel

Hi,

at the moment I'm working on my diploma thesis, my topic is HTML-Code
in emails. I should try to hide javascript-, vba- or html-code in an
email so that the addressee is not able to see it - the addressee only
sees the text.

My teacher would like to see what is possible over hidden html-/
javascript- or vba-code and whether it's possible to execute files or
whether it's possible to do any damage like viruses/Trojans with this
hidden code.

Does anybody have tips or helpful links/documents about this topic?

thanks in advance
Daniel

Besides, any sane person would have scripting disabled in their mail
program. Even MS has it disabled by default now.

I'm not trying to spam anybody. I only do what my teacher demands from
me and I hoped that maybe I can get some help in this group :/

You won't find folks where to give you instruction on how to build a
"dirty-bomb" either.

If this is for a college thesis, you should have enough technical
expertise to know what is involved and ramifications of such code. You
would not need to has for help here. Frankly I do not believe you. Post
the email of this "professor", some on here will set him straight....

You have an idiot for a teacher. He/she should NEVER assign this, nor
allow a thesis on this topic.

Besides what everyone else has said, I don't even understand your
situation. It's like writing a diploma thesis on how to embed a
cross-browser Flash presentation in a web page or on how to get the best
results from roasting a pork shoulder. I mean, the explanations are out
there, they take a few paragraphs or a couple of pages to explain, and
then they're done. Copy and paste. It's hardly a thesis topic.

Note that he said "diploma thesis" - not "PhD thesis." Assuming that he's
really taking a class at all, I suspect this to be a final project at a
diploma mill.

I understand, but still, in my vocabulary (and I realize this is one of
those things that probably varies by country), "thesis" nevertheless
implies an honors paper of non-trivial length and significant research
in consultation with an advisor, not something you can complete by
finding a couple of blog entries on line and copying them down.

Sure, it's a written "work" (should be about 30-40-sided). And my
teacher wants that I explain with some examples, what I can do with
html, javascript and other codes in emails.

My initial thoughts about you, aside from I don't buy any of these lies,
is you are lazy. If you took Web courses, HTML emails should have been
covered.

I still think your "teacher" (I'm interested - what reputable school is
this?) is an idiot for asking/allowing this.

And now that you've re-worded your "thesis" requirement (very suspicious
behavior) try Googling for a plagiarized answer, or better yet, do the
work yourself and see what can be accomplished instead of relying on
others to do it for you.

Anyone with any sense has Javascript disabled in their email program.

If not -> PLEASE DO IT IMMEDIATELY !!!
