Uplink

[scorcher821]

If anyone has ever been interested in a "hacking simulator", I would reccomend Uplink. You won't learn any specifics, but you will learn the basics of black hat (so you know how to secure your network against those kinds of technologies), and its pretty fun altogether (it actually has a plot!).

Anyone else have any hacking games?

where do I find uplink?

There's also another hacking simulator, that I consider slightly better than uplink, its DarkSigns (only for windbl0ws) , it's more realistic and you can even program your own tools in a easy scripting language.

Uplink is nice too, and runs on the 3 major platforms.

Here's the URL for DarkSigns: http://www.darksigns.com
And for Uplink: http://www.uplink.co.uk

every copy i have come across has been detected as a trojan....

Well, I don't know about that, since I run it in *nix OS's but that is very weird. The one in the official website should be alright...
