Today there are several different groups that make up what is known as the internet.

The first of these groups would be the below standard user group. This group is almost 100% dependent upon Technical Support, and "ease of use" ISPs such as AOL or CompuServe. These are the people you best friends are warning you about, like the 80 year old man that calls tech support asking why his computer is "Beeping" after installing a modem. "Well, sir, frankly, using wire pliers to cut the modem down so it would fix into that nice pretty BLACK slot, was probably a bad idea...considering the modem is ISA".

Then there is our second group of the night, the standard user. Not much can be said about this group, only that they make up about 80% of the population of the internet, using ISPs such as AOL, and even down to local access carriers. This group mostly knows enough about computers to be dangerous, and subseptible to panic upon media coverage of a virus, worm, or the defacement of a webpage. The majority of this group view all people in the following groups as a threat, one that should be dealt with no matter what the cost.

The next group is a very slight change from the standard user, it is a group that has gotten the name "script kiddies" over the years. This group is a bit more advanced than the standard user. People in the "script kiddies" range tend to have a redeeming predestination for violence and incorrect grammer. If it were not for thier lack of social skills this group would most likely not be involved with computers, I guess we can say they are wannabe gang members that forgot to make friends. This group it could be said is the most dangerous, they know what they can do, and they know where to download the "leeto toolz" to get it done. The technical knowledge in this group varies from "My friends showed me how to do it", to "I am a BS in CST and I just felt like causing some trouble". These people are not the curious of the internet world, they are the vandals who wish to an extent that they knew everything, but lack the patience to spend the time to do so. Some of the "lucky" script kiddies actually make a final destination to our final group.

And finally, we have the standard 100% USDA approved hacker, one who may dwell within or possibly outside of the law. The persons in this group have a VERY apparent lack of social skills, as well as an abnormal intellegence, most do not like school, and will either be forced by parents to go, or drop out at the college level. These people normally find it hard to carry a relationship into actual commitment, mostly because of improper social skills. This group also makes up about 70% of the security community, as well as about 40% of the cybercrime sector.
