Subject: Re: Session Archive. Where?

Hi.

I found it!

Yes, I use Johnny, and indeed, it change the names and locations of the
session files.

With Johnny a hidden folder is created inside the user's folder, and inside
it another folder with all the files with all the information of the
sessions.

The path is: "User/.john/sessions/"

I'm interested to see what is saved in the session file in case I can get
an idea of where the attack is going.

For example, this is the content of a file from a session of mine: (Can
someone briefly explain what each line means?)

A greeting.

MA40.
