HTTrack : Clone a Website@KALI LINUX

1.    This post will introduce you with a well known tool to clone a website ..the tool is known as HTTrack...though is inbuilt into Kali but older versions may not have it... The purpose of HTTrack is to copy a website.It allows a Penetration Tester to look at the entire content of a website, all its pages,and files offline, and in their own controlled environment. Needless to emphasize on the importance and usefulness of having a copy of a website that could be used to develop fake phishing websites, which can be incorporated in other Penetration Testing toolsets.To install HTTrack if not already inbuilt in Kali, open a Terminal window and type in the following as shown in the following screenshot.

apt-get install httrack

2.  Firstly we will create a directory to store the copied website. The following
screenshot shows a directory created named testwebsite using the mkdir command.

3.   To start HTTrack, type httrack in the command window and give the project
a name, as shown in the following screen shot:

 4.   The next step is to select a directory to save the website. The example in the
following screen shot shows the folder created in the previous step /root/
testwebsite
, used for the directory:

5.   Enter the URL of the site you want to capture. The example in the following
screen shot shows www.hackershandbook.org. This can be any website. Most attacks use a website accessed by clients from your target, such as popular social media websites or the target's internal websites.The next two options are presented regarding what you want to do with the captured site. Option 2 is the easiest method, which is a mirror website with a wizard as shown in the following screen shot:

6.  Next, you can specify if you want to use a proxy to launch the attack. You can also specify what type of files you want to download (the example in the following screen shot shows * for all files). You can also define any command line options or flags you might want to set. The example in the following screen shot shows no additional options.Before httrack runs, it will display the command that it is running. You can use this command in the future if you want to run httrack without going through the wizard again. The following screen shots show hhtrack cloning www.hackershandbook.org:

7.   After you are done cloning the website, navigate to the directory where you
saved it. Inside, you will find all your files and web pages, as shown in the
following screen shot:

  1. i just want to share my experience with everyone. I have being hearing about this blank ATM card for a while and i never really paid any interest to it because of my doubts. Until one day i discovered a hacking guy called Edwin Benson. he is really good at what he is doing. Back to the point, I inquired about The Blank ATM Card. If it works or even Exist. They told me Yes and that its a card programmed for random money withdraws without being noticed and can also be used for free online purchases of any kind. This was shocking and i still had my doubts. Then i gave it a try and asked for the card and agreed to their terms and conditions. Hoping and praying it was not a scam. One week later i received my card and tried with the closest ATM machine close to me, It worked like magic. I was able to withdraw up to $3000. This was unbelievable and the happiest day of my life. So far i have being able to withdraw up to $28000 without any stress of being caught. I don't know why i am posting this here, i just felt this might help those of us in need of financial stability. blank Atm has really change my life. If you want to contact them, Here is the email address benson.blankatmcard@gmail.com . And I believe they will also Change your Life
