    Zombie PCs menace mankind

    ...yar, bet they're all Windows machines, save any controlling servers.

    This is not a new thing though is it, Nihil posted a very interesting article a few weeks back about a zombie network being run by a 13 kiddie. The bots that he was using had keyloggers that would report back and leave a log on a private IRC chat room. It was a great article...hang on, I'll see if I can find it....

    ...here it is, the thing I was looking for

    it is a huge read, but if you have finished read war and peace, this is a good read.

    The Art of War is a much better read. You can extrapilate context and appy it directly to the world of infosec. Oh and if you want to know how to conduct yourself in combat, it's pretty good for that too.

    The Art of War
    Been several years since I last read it... As usual Hoss is right on the money... You can actually extrapolate the content to many facets of life, business, compsec etc. It applies so well in so many ways...

    The Art of War is a splendid book, it is a shame most people cannot see the deeper meanings hidden within.
