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.

I don't know, but knowing microsoft, probably very little. Probably the later ones support a few more components/OS's.

most likely some sort of bug fixes in the code I guess, as well as adding a few more little buttons for facy looks. You know how M$ likes to look fancy!

There is basically no difference between vb 5 & vb 6, but there is quite a difference from vb 4 to vb 5.

For a start, after vb 4 there were (are) no more 16-bit versions of vb (M$ released 16 and 32 bit versions of visual basic 4). Also vb 5 allows you to compile into native code, instead of "P-code" which needs to be interpretted by a dll file, whereas vb 4 only allowed "P-code" compiling.

EDIT: There are probably other differences but I can't remember them right now (or don't know them)

Here's microsoft's "What's new in vb 6" website.
