This is the Conversation Forum for Hackers and Crackers << Inisght get over it. >> Subject: Hats Posted Jun 5, 2004 by Researcher 740739   Posting 1 You completely miss out the subject of hats, ie. black hats are hackers who hack for illegal gains or to cause expense or work for others, white hats are those who warn others about holes in their security and are simply trying to advance their knowledge, while grey hats are blacks who claim to be whites. Also, hackers with little skills using 'progz' or scripts written by others are known by more skilled hackers as 'script kiddies'.
