I started life as a programmer. When I didn't get rich at it, I went to Martial Arts. I figured I could use it to shake down some rich folks. Alas, I never made any money doing that either.
I understand computers just fine. What I fail to understand is the mentality (or lack thereof) of the computer criminal.
Don't know whats hapenning but..

I think anytime there is easy money to be had there is crime. It doesn't matter whether it's computer crime or street crime.I understand computers just fine. What I fail to understand is the mentality (or lack thereof) of the computer criminal.

I have zero tolerance for thieves and criminals. I like the Chinese system. You put a bullet in their heads and then charge the criminal's family for the cost of the bullet.Is the bear growling? QUICK! Someone feed the bear!
