Hi!
My first introduction to Unix and Viruses in general was when I
read Cliff Stoll's 'The Cuckoo's Egg'. I reccomend it to any and
everyone who is interested in computer security. It was due to this book
that I got interested in security and hats off to it. I loved the book
and would never mind reading it again. The Internet worm and the story
of Robert Morrison Jr. ( I think as far as I remember his father was the
head of National Security at the time!!) is also covered in it.
