    l33t, stands for elite, many scriptkiddies consider themselves elite (l33t) because they can us a program like Sub7.

    A Backdoor, is a program placed on your computer which will allow a scriptkiddie access to your system. (see Sub7 again).

    Hi
    This is Skidde language which you see now-a-days in every chat room, and online game server. I think It started with the revolution in the Online PC Gaming Industry in around 1944 i think (Doom was the game). Where the players used it to show demonstrate that the speaker was a hacker and someone to be feared.

    i33t or 1337 Comes from "Leet" Which is formed from the word "Eleet "

    It replacing vowels with numbers:

    A = 4
    E = 3
    I = 1
    O = 0

    This language also uses Keyboard Signs to make Alphabets Like A= 4, @, /-\ ; M =|\/|, )v( it's kinda very Flexible.

    For example if you have to write "I Am Eleet Hacker"

    It can be like

    1 4m l33t h4x0r
    or
    1 4|\/| |_337 |-|4x0r
    or
    1 4m 4 133t h4ck3r

    Yep, that's when I started using 1337 speak. Right around the end of the war...
