They're probably sitting on their WinTel machines with a ping-of-death prog that they downloaded. A real hacker will almost always help you out with your questions.

that is of course someone doesn't ask something like "How do I hack..." or "I need to get into my girl friend's..." or something like that.

there are no books to tell you how to be a l33t h4x0r but there are books that teach you some flaws to look at.... O'Reilly books point at flaws a LOT actually. my PHP book has an entire chapter dedicated to how flaws in programming can be exploited with numerous examples of what a program is asked to do and how that can be exploited.
if yer really interesting in being l337 h4xor check out the O'Reilly book on TCP/IP as well as Practical C++

There are a multitude of pests who think the term 'hacker' means people who break into computers. I generally regard them as a bunch of pimply teenagers who just want the media high off of being a cracker or script kiddie.
I find those kind of people unwelcome in any serious discussion on technology, and I'm sure many of you do too. They pirate software, can't spell or punctuate properly, and use other people's scripts to do what they want.

im going to /*misassume*/ that you are asking about the right definitino of hacking, which is progrmaing, and not cracking, breaking into computers
ok, orielly has a few good books on perl, c++, linux, and a few other langauges, go to the local book store, or library
ok, now if you want to learn about breaking into computers WRONG FORUM, go post it in the linux/unix forum, or the lounge,

how do you know he wasn't really asking about hacking? if he was then this whole discussion was embarrasingly pointless...
edit, if interested in internet nooks and crannies, or an intro to information technology, then i recommend the book mentioned in all of the following links:

Ping of death program? WIndows? Unless its 2000 or XP Windows for DOS or anyother attack that requires modifying the TCP headers are usless unless on an Operating SYstem with full Unix Sockets. Ping-of-death is a type of bot for CounterStrike :D
Does this show how clueless you are? The people who go around calling themselfs 1337 h4x0rs are
[*]10% Authentic (RiceX Gangs)[*]10% Twelve Year olds[*]80% People with nothing better to do who know what there doing and just making an arse of themselfs.[/list]
