From the Back Cover

A good hacker will almost never use pre-programmed exploits to hack applications, instead he/she would develop or program them themselves.
You should in any case learn one or more programming languages, this indispensable.
By doing so, your knowledge about the technique will increase, which will make complex situations and processes easier to understand.
Most of the people who may call themselves hackers today most probably did not begin their computer experience with the goal of becoming as quickly as possible hackers.
With their basically interest in IT systems and the corresponding correlations, they have become quite alone in the long-run what they are today: hackers.
You can' t become a hacker overnight - it requires a lot of commitment, technical understanding and years of praxis and of theory as well.

From the Inside Flap

3.1 Self-protection on the internet How does a firewall work? Basically, you should first understand how data exchange on the internet over ports goes. Data are exchanged in the operating system over so called ports (or doors). The role of a firewall is basically to lock all the ports. When a request comes from outside or inside the pc, the firewall asks the user if they accept to connect. As time goes by, some filtration rules are set in the firewall to allow some programmes access to the internet and data exchange with the outside. An operating system has 65.535 ports. There are firewalls from different manufacturers and, of course, they run on slightly different principles. Here is a short list of firewall providers: McAfee Personal Firewall Plus: de.mcafee.com/root/catalog.asp Norton Internet Security: symantec.de Sygate Firewall: sygate.com Besides a serious (and, sure, also properly configured) firewall, you also need additional tools like antivirus-programmes. I would recommend here Kaspersky Antivirus Pro which has proved very efficient (kapersky.com). Further antivirus programmes are: McAfee Virus Scan: mcafee.com/de/ Antivir Personal Edition: antivir-pe.de Norton Antivirus: symantec.com/region/de/ Besides infections by viruses, most infections come today from spywares/adware' s which manifest most of the time in popups or toolbars in the Internet Explorer. Pcs that have selected Active X in the settings of the browser are particularly in danger since spywares can self-install easily over ActiveX. Many hackers use this gap on pages to install user tools on pcs when they surf the web. Here is a list of useful anti-spyware programmes: Ad-Aware: lavasoft.de Spybot search & destroy: safernetworking.org/de/index.html HijackThis: hijackthis.de HijackThis is a programme for the detection of browser hijackers. The analysed log file can be posted in forums when you ask for help to remove the spyware (e.g. toolbars in the IE or irritating popups etc.). The best thing you can do is actually to buy for your DSL broadbandconnection a reasonable router having a NAT firewall. A router with firewall closes all ports until you instruct it to open some e.g. to run the eMule client.
