Bliss : Backtrack OperatingSystem
Download here:

Awesome Speed ! Awesome Power !Now we all know that Backtrack 2.0 /3.0 is out and a lot of you might have evenyou’re yourhands dirty on that.EVERY Black Hat , Grey Hat , or White Hatcan bid bye to Microsoft. No need to run an OS with ahundred buggy programs running in the background, and all the lame
firewalls
that still slapadware/rootkits and all kind of malware that infects , while allowing users to be unknowinglybombarderd by megabytes of useless
commercial 
crap .Backtrack today is one of 
preffered 
operating systems used by hackers all around the worlddue to the hacker ready interface, built in
library 
of greatest tools, be it your favourite trafficsniffer Wireshark, or port scanner Nmap. Last but not the least the philosophy behind a OpenSource Software is
dear 
to a the hacker- the quest for the freedom.Yeah we all know, the Linux is free , Linux prevents Viruses, blah blah. But that’s not thecompelling reason . The power offered is the real thing that makes it a
million 
times betterthan the MS would be. That’s the
way 
computers should be

 Backtrack is the best of two worlds: it caters to the needs of both the
experienced
(Greyhat | Black Hat ) user that wants a powerful and reliable desktop operating system, usablewithout constant fiddling, a godsent distro for the
plethora 
of new users that are preparedto move from proprietry boundations to freedom- from Windows to Linux.
“ 
BackTrack 
is a Linux-based distribution dedicated to penetration testing or hacking (depending on how you look at it). It contains more than 300 of the world's most popular open source or freely distributablehacking tools.

BackTrack , I again insist is
the easiest 
method around to get free access to 100s of assortedtools around, if the
Linux 
part doesn't scare you. For the
script-kiddie 
fond of working on
Windows 
box, Backtrack won’t be much trouble too. They can get up and running usingBackTrack with little or no Linux knowledge. The KDE GUI is simply
amazing
. For instance,setting up
Snort 
is a one-click process (try that outside of BackTrack you’ll know).Password hacking process also works like breeze in BackTrack.

The thing I personally love about BT and such is the freedom ,
no reason, you’re not required to payfor anything, the web was meant to be free and it should remain free, come what may.
The feature
worth mentioning about Backtrack, or any other Linux distro for that matter- is thepower it offers! Sheer Power, at zero cost !For instance, I love to wardrive, you can try this:1.
 
Runkismet: And you might never go back to the Microsoft’s funny OS, which can onlyrun NetStumblers and such. It seems as if the developers forgot to complete NetStumbler, in view of their proprietry motives :-)You'r a hacker or a wannabe, arent'you? So as soon as you boot up Backtrack, play withthe most powerful Tools :
Wget,cURL,Pavuk,Etherape,Scapy
... or even just try thesimplest ones: first run -say-DelugeorTransmissionand then type in a terminal
lsof 
or
netstat -l 
ab mujhe batao tumhe kya lagta hai :-)
