I was about 10 when my Dad's computer was hacked...I wanted to learn to do that. >:P So I used Google and found HackThisSite, needless to say I was a noob at the time...so it didn't help much. Then around age 12 I went to some forum (I forget the name) and learned about writing exploits/shellcode, I learned Python, Perl, Ruby, and SOME C in about a week. I wrote my first exploit (simple little BoF) at 13, and at 14 thought I should expand my knowledge of programming. I went off and learned Java in about two weeks, C and C++ in about a month, and some basic ASM.
I was searching for a game download ( may be CS ) and i ended up at viprasys. After that about after one year I was a Very Basic Hacker. Soon i came to know about BT4 and metasploit since then i became a Grey Hat and and learnt alot of Web App Sex and Penetration testing, fuzzing and a lot. I am GLAD that i learnt CSRF and i am aiming to learn Account Lockout, XSHM, 1 Click attack, Forced Browsing , network eavesdropping and cache poisoning. Hope i advance myself in the forum.
