There is no Conclusive profile of a Hacker/Cracker it's any one who has an axe to grind with a knowlage of technology (surely ???) after all with the cost of a home PC and the avaliblity of "Hacking For Dummies" (joke) manuals about the ease with which any person could hack/crack makes it impossible to determine who will try it next.....

There actually is a book called "Hacking For Dummies". I haven't read it, but I've heard of it. Read about/order it here:
