Acknowledgments

I would first like to thank the illustrious DJ Jackalope (aka Karen) for all of her encouragement, support, and understanding throughout the writing of this book. Without her, it would have languished in the doldrums, and I don't think I could have done this book without her.

I'd also like to thank Nat Torkington for putting me in touch with Rob, my fearless (and patient) editor for this book, as well as my parents for having the faith to let me have time to tinker with computers and do silly things like read Phrack when I was a kid; if not for that, I might have ended up doing something completely different.
