if you talking about keyloggers they have legitimate uses as well...as for all the other things... really its not going to happen... ever

yall are way off, there are three types of internet exploring, there is surfing, hacking, and cracking. "Hackers" are just people who know what they are doing and like to mess around on the internet and get enjoyment out of looking at the infrastructure of certian web pages, hackers arnt the ones that steal your credit card numbers and such. "Crackers" on the other hand are the ones you have to look out for, they are the ones who like to figure out people passwords and go in and change the source code of their webpage to make it say something vulgar. There is a way to hack somebodies aim account using php where aim will send you the password instead of the intended person, but i wouldnt kno

seems like you do know lol well Idk well I'm in general buisness nad marketing classes and the def for a hacker is a person who does whatever it was he does (not in those words) online for illigal purposes so yeah your wrong buddy and whats the difference between a cracker and a hacker ????? but its okay I went on a forum to complain about what they are doing to make the interent a worse place and some of the downloads well actually most were viruses so they got what they deserved !

You know, up till now i still don't really get it. Why would anyone want to hack an Aim account? Firstly, the hacker might be yur friend who wants to know your deepest secrets or something to blackmail you. How? It's not like you keep your secrets in e-mail! Second, they want to copy your contact list and send viruses to your friends. WHy? No idea. They could just go into a chatroom, copy some e-mails and they'll be off. THirdly, its fun.

Now do you all see what's going on here? The most likely reason the hacker hacked into your Aim account was because he thought it was FUN. God....the world is really changing nowadays huh? Many years back it was "What's the internet? Is it some black magic?". Today it's more of "Ooo the internet! Let's hack some people!" I just don't believe the society these days and today's hackers. Some day there might be even a "Hacker War"...

There are hacker wars all the time, actually. They occur when a hacker hacks another hacker (usually without knowing the other guy is a hacker) and a turf war results. Then there are bttles between hackers and SysAdmins.

You're describing cracker behavior, not hackers. Get it right...the fact that people like you don't know the difference and can't distinguish between the two is why "hacking" is considered illegal activity.

Hackers are very skilled people. Cracking is a very complicated thing. So, only very skilled people can crack things. So, only hackers can crack codes. Having a population of 100 honest hackers and one stupid guy, the stupid guy will destroy the reputation of the honest ones.

Sadly, everybody is hacking these days. I think the key is to have a password that's long and somewhat random. Hackers usually end up getting caught anyway, but look at the trouble they can cause. I use different passwords everywhere so this never happens to me. You should do the same.
