The Hacker’s Underground Handbook starts off with the very
basics with topics like programming and Linux. It then moves on to introduce and
teach the topics of
* password cracking
* phishing
* network hacking
* wireless hacking

I was really surprised how this book laid out the information, presenting it
in an easy to read and understandable fashion. In each chapter the author first
introduces you to the topic and then shows
you a real-world example with step-by-step instructions with images. It makes hacking look so easy!
Once you complete reading this book, the author explains where to go from
there and how to keep learning. You will
never again be lost and overwhelmed by all the hacking information out
there.

College Financial Advice and Where to Seek it Out
Getting through college is one of the most financially straining experiences that you will ever have during the course of your life. The expense is phenomenal and still rising, despite the fact that more and more families are falling below the poverty line. Without money though, there is no way that you could even consider going to college or staying on if you have already started, stay on there. This is unfortunately not very fair and the system does not tend to help students in need out, but there are individuals that you can go to for financial advice if you ever think you may be in need of a boost to keep you in college.
Getting a job is obviously the first step to help you get through college somewhat intact. Campuses often have job websites or notice boards that you can tap into if you need money and need it quickly. There are usually various resources of this nature available because it keeps any of the jobs going in student hands rather than giving the jobs to individuals outside of the college when the need is greater elsewhere. Depending on the size of the campus, the variety of jobs may actually be extensive. Failing that, there are probably experiments going on in the psychology department that will usually pay for the pleasure of exploring your mind. For a quick fix, this will do, but what about the more long term problems of staying at college when dubitation fees and housing fees come around again?
Every good college or university will have a financial office as well as a student guidance centre. They may not be called that because they go under a variety of different guises. However, I guarantee that they will be there somewhere. If in doubt, just head to the administrative centre of your university and you will most likely find it there. If not, you will no doubt be redirected to the right place.
Guidance counsellors at your college and university can be found in the student help departments and are employed for the sole reason of finding a viable solution for student problems, and money and funding often dominate their time. So many students find themselves in need of a cash injection because they live on the poverty line that the individuals employed there will most definitely know their stuff and be able to advise you far better than any individual elsewhere in the school or outside of it ever could.
The guidance counsellors at your school will be able to point you in the right direct for grants, scholarships, hardship loans and quick fixes that will enable you to get your head back above water again. They will also be able to provide you with information to help avoid another similar circumstance occurring as well as providing you with ongoing advice and support. You will probably find shelves stacked with manual and books that could also be used to help you because they will be able to enlighten you on the wonderful world of scholarships and grants that are there to keep you on course for completing your education as well as enhance your future prospects.
The majority of individuals working in such an office will be highly trained and you will probably be referred to a particular guidance counsellor so you can return to him or her whenever you need help in the future. This will give you peace of mind straight away and will remove most of the strain and stress that you would most definitely be under!
