Hi. My name's Chris, and I want to be a podcast novelist. This show is a chronicle of my journey towards that goal. It's not about writing techniques, interviews with authors...none of that. This is more about me getting comfortable in front of the microphone and gaining the discipline expected of a podcast author. Thank you for accompanying me on this journey.

Safari Internet Cache:
Original location for Safari 2 and early 3:
- Users/USERNAME/Library/Caches/Safari/
- Files were given Unique ID and extension of .cache
Version 3: switched to a sqlite database file and moved the cache to /var/folders
-Location: /var/folders/(UniqueID)/(UniqueID)/caches/com.apple.Safari
-Cache.db file
-If in Windows environment, ie. Encase, you will not see “/var/folders”, instead it will be:
-/private/var/folders/(UniqueID)/(UniqueID)/caches/com.apple.Safari
-var/folders view on Mac is called “soft link” as Private is implied
Latest Safari Ver 3 & Version 4 moves the cache back to:
Users/USERNAME/Library/Caches\com.apple.safari
- The Cache.db file resides here. Probable change was security based as it placed te file back in the users folder.
Viewing Safari Cache:
SQLite DB Browser 1.3:
Database: can use SQLite DB browser 1.3 from Sourceforge
-Displays the .db tables
-Example: “Response Table”: has website URL and Date/Time Stamp in GMT
Filejuicer:
-Drop the Cache.db on Filejuicer and it will parse the data out
-Images, HTML, TXT, etc.
Incident Response/Trusted Utilities:
-Often times, whenever out on scene, it is an unknown environment
-Must consider all machines to be unknown and applications possibly
altered
-Best way to prepare is to have our own trusted utilities disk
-Recommend a flash drive, minimum 4 GB to use
-If PowerPC: recommend Firewire, if Intel: recommend USB
Trusted Utilities Drive:
1. Disk Initialization (formatting for you Microsofties): Use Disk Utility
to initialize the drive and wipe it prior to placing tools on it.
2. Put on utilities: i.e. Terminal, System Profiler, etc.
3. Rule of thumb: Command Line Tools/GUI Tools/Evidence Collection.
4. Name the Volume/Disk something you will recognize i.e.
“RyansTrusted Utilities" This eliminates confusion on Suspectʼs
desktop
5. Run Trusted Utilities: Date, System Profiler and export information to
Evidence Collection.
6. Keep record of the commands run for later review and reporting, i.e.
use PDF printout from Mac builtin utilities.
7. Remember to direct your path to the Trusted Utilities Disk as you are
never sure what the suspect has done to their machine. Control your
environment.
PList(s) of the Week(PLOW):
Address Book:
/Users/USERNAME/Library/Preferences/addressbookme.plist:
-This PList originates information entered at Registration
-Can contain: First Name, Last Name, Local Phone #, Street Address 1

The episodes Website of the Week is appleeserialnumberinfo.com. This website interprets a Mac's serial number and provides us with great information on the make up of that particular system.
We talk briefly about a native "switch" in Snow Leporad that allows us to turn on read/write to NTFS volumes. No need for NTFS 3G or Tuxera NTFS. Look for more on that later.

This is our holiday special episode. We gather around the Christmas tree with the kids and read our version of The Night Before Christmas.
We want to thank all of you for taking the time to listen to the podcast and provide us feedback to help make the show better. We try our best to provide information that will help you in your Mac exams or at least point you in the direction where your questions can be answered.
We would especially like to thank our own MacDudette, KK, for writing the MacMas version and for her on the fly editing while Chris and Dave were totally clueless on how to make two words rhyme.
We hope that you have a Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah or whatever you are celebrating!
Be safe and we hope to see you in the new year!

Listener Jay pointed out that when the selected startup disk is BootCamp, you will not be able to boot into Single User Mode. You will also not be able to boot using any other startup option except for Startup Manager (Option Key) and Terminal Disk Mode (T Key). You can reset the PRAM (CMD, Option, P, R Keys) which will reset the startup disk to the OS X startup disk. Remember, this will also reset your date and time and remove the Open Firmware password if one was set.When you boot with the option key and see the BootCamp Disk selected as default, this indicates that it is the selected startup disk. You will need to use a different method to attain the date/time and drive info. You could use forensic Boot CDs such as Macquisiton, SPADA or Raptor to boot the system for imaging or preview. Just make sure that the solution you are using will boot a Mac.Thanks to Jay for his email and tip.Be Safe,The MacDudes
