Microsoft COFEE software leaks - most illegal software you can pirate

Microsoft's COFEE software, used by law enforcement agencies to grab data from password protected or encrypted sources ... has leaked on the internet. You can now steal the software and break the law by using it as well. What a paradox.

If you use this software to grab private data from another persons computer then you are breaking almost every law known to man, so if you do manage to get a hold of it ... you have been warned.

Quite surprising - nearly 400 seeds on the download on The Pirate Bay... a few people aren't afraid of downloading it, let's see if they use it though...

Re: Microsoft COFEE software leaks - most illegal software you can pirate

I'd love to see it in action, I'm very curious about how secure various encryption algorithms and protection schemes really are.

I hope the police have a seriously airtight warrant when they use this, otherwise this is the highest breach of our (U.S Citizens) constitutional rights ever.

Re: Microsoft COFEE software leaks - most illegal software you can pirate

after many hours of googling i finally found a very underground community that were discussing it, and from looking at the gui it doesn't seem to be able to do anything whatsoever, All i could see on the GUI was a couple of forms allowing you to fill out details of a crime or something

I don't think it does a damn thing from what I have seen, but then again I don't have the software in hand.

3 Letters, IRC.

There's plenty of discussion about it there.
You youngins probably don't even remember how to use it :P
