About the AuthorThe author, Dr. K, got his first computer in 1983. He soon found that access to large computers was strictly limited and began finding ways to evade them, a step that lead to many years of exploring and understanding computer systems and networks. After attending a Dutch hacker conference in 1993, Dr. K dedicated most of his spare time to hacking on the Internet and soon after started the UK hacker e-zine Phreak/Hack-United Kingdom (P/H-UK). He dropped out of the hacker scene soon after the high profile prosecutions of Datastream Cowboy and Maelstrom and now works as a computer networking and security consultant.
