Bwahahahahahah. Sorry found that really really funny.

Anyways here is my take.
If you need to ask where on the net you can learn to hack then you have not even worked out google. What i mean is you are unlikely to become a hacker simply based on lack of ingenuity. No offense intended just honesty. Most hackers dont simply go and download a tool and hack a site. Thats what skiddies do. A good hacker will find the vulnerability generally based on there ability to manipulate and interrogate sites etc. This is an ever changing environment where variables are infinite You need to understand the workings of the site in question. What O/S is it running etc etc etc. Look for ways to get in. Then you need to know that you can clear your tracks or its sort of pointless.
Sorry if it sounds harsh but it threw me a bit that topic.
HF is a great start like Labrocca said.

One more thing based on your last post. Go to internet cafe.
Learn PROXY also. That could come in handy in your ventures.

I totally agree. Also, you need to learn programming before hacking. Especially get familiar with different Linux distros and PHP.
One can't hack without programming knowledge.

Why would you want to learn how to hack a site?

[Schmarvin]

I would want to learn for preparations in security. It's a good thing to learn to protect yourself online. But, I don't have the time to learn. Though, I see where he is coming from when defending yourself against online hackers and such that want to destroy your sites. If I get the money quicker than time, then I'd just hire the services of another company.

learning to hack it good for your knowledge
but never use it for bad things.

BTW i just checked hackforums.net
its a big community eh.
how many more forums do you own labracco?

[Josh[y]]

Well I guess I should get on it then xD

[stefanov]

Well from what i know before even consider hacking forum,you would have to learn php/mysql or language in witch that site/forum is made, then find weak spot , with spiders/robots and then get some sql injections.
But ofc , easyest way to take down site is DDoc

Like I said. I only wish to learn to know how its done, to prevent attacks on my site. Its like when I was in law enforcement, I was taught all sorts of ways to commit certain offenses to mainly know how to spot them

Unless that with hacking we can learn other things.. or maybe not.

Anyone?

Yeah I totally suggest you register to hackforums.net
It might be for beginners, but one can become a pro hacker if he/she tries very hard, doing some requests members make, they can earn enough experience to start really hacking--> real hacking is all about protection
Hackers are best security experts. It's like when football coaches say: Attack is the best form of defence. Really.

Oh...I also suggest you pay a small fee of 5$ to get a HF l337 status--> lots of great stuff in those secret sections

Wow, when I read the topic title I was asking myself, "What is wrong with this lunatic?" Any who, since you're using it for good purposes (e.g. securing your site), then it's probably best to ask questions on a hacking based forum with extensive resources. I don't personally know of any sites that do this since I don't really concern myself with such things, however, I go to different resources when it comes to protecting my secure.
