Description This book is amazing. It teaches you everything you need to know about all the dark secrets surrounding the hacker world and how to protect yourself. All the way from finding out how Remote Access Trojans are created to phone phreaking. The book starts off very slow with text about white supremacy and why/how racists post their views and opinions on the internet. That was really the only boring part of the book and it seemed kind of off-topic at times. Everything else included in this book is amazing. The examples and website referring is a big help. For example: the book teaches you about a subject...such as how hackers create their programs (using such languages as C and Delphi), then it gives you many examples of their programs and what their programs do, then gives you multiple websites to go to if you're interested in viewing the source code of these programs or the programs themselves. The author has great writing skills and makes the book humerous at times by showing the true facts about the internet and certain companies...oh, and cracking a joke here and there about the neo-nazis and their little websites. If you're a person who is trying to protect oneself from hackers, crackers, etc or if you're a white hat hacker who is trying to work on your skill, then this is the book for you. Remember, this book doesn't teach you how to hack maliciously, but teaches you how the hackers work their magic. Other topics this book covers is: 1) How to find a relative or close friend using the internet. 2) How to set up a firewall and why their usage is important. 3) How to protect yourself from idnetity theft, spammers, hackers, and much more.
