Network (in)Security Interesting hacks and cracks. Info on firewalls, TCP/IP, encryption, networks, and security. The ins and outs of the phone system, caller services, how things work, what's illegal and what's not, cellular phones, beepers, telephony legislation, the PUC, ISDN, taps, who's listening, and switches. Talking about phones, hacking systems, technical advice, and such is completely LEGAL in the United States -- it's covered by the First Amendment. What's illegal is conspiracy to commit a crime. So if you say something like "Meet me at 2am so we can crack a can" or "I changed my cell phone's number myself" you are criminally liable. Stating "You can crack a can by doing thus-and-so" or "If you wanted to change a cell phone's number, you could do it like so" is perfectly OK. Posting passwords, calling card numbers, or credit card numbers is forbidden on this network. Posting such info will get you booted off the net.

you dont


honestly though, you can spend some time and become strongly familiar with computers like me

but if you would truly learn to become a real hacker...it isnt worth the amount of time you woudl have to put into more so the finding of what you need to learn than the actual consumption of information

but if you have way too much determination
read over a few programming books on visual basic (and basic), C++, Pascal, Java and html (deal with the internet) pick up books on OS (operating sources)

the library is your friend in that instance

and then ask detailed question such as if there are any ways to exploit backdoors and theories on internet weaknesses to people, even if online, that have become familiar to you

But the writers of all of these tutorials are supposing the reader is using Unix or some other damn thing.

That's because you can't hack your way out of a paper bag using windows
