Agreed, Ankit Fadia's book is worthless. As far as learning about
hacking/cracking, start out by picking up a copy of 'HACKERS' by Steven
Levy (you won't regret it.)
Whatever you do, avoid anything at all related to antionline.com,
happyhacker.com, or Kevin Mitnick...

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 seems that all of the reviewers on Amazon seem to disagree with you.
Why do you think it was a great book, could you give us a quick review of
it
in your own words. 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.
Thanks

Did you ever find the site you were looking for? I'm also thinking
about security but most people tell me to learn how to hack first
then get into security...
