Easy Read -- I'm Smarter & Virus Free

The book is an easy fast read -- which you should read at your PC so you can try out the wide-range of tricks this book presents.I learned how to protect my system and the ways hackers can attack a system.A good read -- well worth your time.

Finally Understand the Ins-and-Outs of Computer Viruses

I had a great time with this book. Not only did I learn how viruses attack systems, I learned how programmers create viruses. I also learned how to surf the Web anonymously and how to send anonymous e-mail. Each chapter presents a pretty cool topic and provides you with operations you can try yourself. If you connect to the Net, you should have a copy.

Buy this Book!

This book is very informative and you will be very suprised at the 411 contained in the book. This is a very good book for anyone involved with internet and computers. I think that this book is well worth its price. You will not be dissapointed. =)

The ultimate guide to protecting your PC?

When I saw this book on COMPUSA, I thought "well, another book on how to protect yourself against these things"....BUT, as soon as I began to explore it, I realized that I was in front of a GOOD competition to THH book (written by Carolyn Meinl). This books covers issues like how the 'bad guys' send annonimous e-mails (and how YOU can do it too!), how phreakers do their job (and how YOU can do it too!). If you like this kind of stuff like I do, then this book is for YOU. FIVE STARS.
