I agree with cyb3rn3tik. I thought those movies were at best "weak" and with the lone gunmen on the x-files only furthered the public's misunderstanding of what hackers and hacking is all about.

I mean, how many times do you see one of these idiots say something completely incorrect, inept, idiotic and off the wall like..."I'm going to hack the mainframe database gigabyte system" Then 17 seconds later they have broken into the DOD's database to find exactly what they're looking for.


I'd say steer clear of these movies and just get down to some real research at some place like
http://packetstorm.decepticons.org or www.securityfocus.com and last but certainly not least antionline.com
