about my interests:
well, I am not interested exactly in hacking as you can see it on TV, I just
prefer to know which code is vulnerable and how to secure it. Many ppl use
some tools like wwwhack, etc and don't even know how it works. No, if this
is real hacking, I don't want to be hacker :-D. I am programmer, I work as
programmer and I like my work

About symmetrical and asymmetrical ciphering:
I don't know what is wrong about AES and DES, I know it is ilicit in some
countries so if you don't want to have any topic about this, please tell me
about
