Ok, due to popular demand, I'll set aside some time to find the CD with that eBook collection on it. Thank you to those who have offered to mirror them - I'll take you up on it just to be safe. =) When I get them posted, I'll email you seperately so you can get them posted and get a link available. Then I'll post all the available links to the list and those who wish can grab. Side note: Shawn, VERY well said! Learning the technology is the key to understanding the basics (and beyond) of the hacker world. I'm not sure if it was in this conversation or not, but I mentioned the O'Reilly (http://www.oreilly.com/) series of books is fantastic for beginners or professionals alike. They give you solid information along with easy to follow scenarios. I believe I have some eBooks of those as well, however I'll have to check which ones are freely distributable. I have a TON of eBooks that might be of interest to a lot of people here. Maybe I'll look into doing a distribution through BitTorrent instead of HTTP links. We'll see... -- Peace. ~G On Wed, 15 Sep 2004 14:41:08 -0400, Mike <securitybasics () infinity77 net> wrote:
I have this book and I can't say great, but good yes. I'll tell you why, it's a good introduction for those just starting out. It get's the mind curious about alot of topics which you can use other books to cover in more detail. This is not a book for the serious security expert but good for students and those just becoming curious about computer security.

It is hard to make one mind with such conflicting evaluation where most reviewers on Amazon says it is garbage and you say that it is great.
