  2. Who are Hackers & Crackers Hackers Crackers Crackers break things. Crackers are those who get their thrills by cracking software, creating viruses, and destroying things. Unfortunately media often confuse the terms, thus the term hacker, when mentioned in mainstream media, usually refers to crackers! • Hackers is a term used for those who have been closely associated with the development of the computer, outside of the traditional corporate structure, and the free software movement (also known as the Open Source movement). Those that help develop code to improve (or create new) software, and share that code with fellow hackers. Hackers therefore make things. http://grok.lsu.edu/Article.aspx?articleid=7203

  3. Security Essentials (Secure sites start with https, not http.) What is a virus? What is Spyware/Malware? Software that can install itself, or run, on a computer without the owner's consent. Spyware may display no symptoms after infecting a computer, but can affect how the computer runs. Spyware can monitor personal information, change personal settings or cause the computer to run slowly. • Software programs deliberately designed to interfere with normal computer operation. They can record, corrupt, or delete data and infect other computers through the Internet. The main symptom to look for, if a virus is present, is if the computer has slowed significantly. http://grok.lsu.edu/Article.aspx?articleId=13994
