Nfo Edit Meaning

1.

An .NFO main use is to contain information about a certian computer system. Users can save their computer specification as a .NFO and share with others - usually for technical support reasons.

It is also used with pirate software packages by groups such as 'Paradox' who consider an .nfo as a way of being elite. If opened in notepad, the file is a simple text file, usually containing an ASCII logo, the software piraters name and the serial number to the package.

Paradox: Yes! We use .NFO's ! Everyone knows we mean business!

See paradox, cracks, warez, nfo, hack

2.

The .nfo file included with a pirated software package. Those in the know will open this with MS Notepad, as it is actually a plain text file. The nfo usually contains a pirate "crew"'s ascii art logo at the top, which bears a resemblance to raw code to the uninitiated, and gets mangled into gibberish if opened in anything other than Notepad.

Usually associated with: ISO, crew, rar, crack, keygen, rip, reg, courier, 0-day.

Q: "I opened the rar from the 0-day. Many thanks to the courier & crew for this one; glad it's not a big ISO. But where's the serial number? Or do I have to use a keygen to reg this rip?"

A: "Just open up the nfo, newbie. The cereal is in there."

See Nupe

NFO

I just came up with this abbreviation for this purpose.

NFO: "Now Fuck Off"

This is what you put at the end of an email, forum post, or other written correspondence to say the words, without actually coming out and saying them. Especially to those who have no clue.

"Oh yeah...thanks for leaving us hanging on the work this weekend. NFO"

Or

"we gave you 100 chances to be cool, yet you manage to ruin things everytime. We've had it.

Nuke From Orbit
