<p>What an amazing world we live in Almost anything you can imagine can be researched, compared, admired, studied, and in many cases, bought, with the click of a mouse. The Internet has changed our lives, putting a world of opportunity before us. Unfortunately, it has also put a world of opportunity into the hands of those whose motives are less than honorable. A firewall, a piece of software or hardware that erects a barrier between your computer and those who might like to invade it, is one solution. If you've been using the Internet for any length of time, you've probably received some unsavory and unsolicited e-mail. If you run a business, you may be worried about the security of your data and your customers' privacy. At home, you want to protect your personal information from identity thieves and other shady characters. Firewalls For Dummies(R) will give you the lowdown on firewalls, then guide you through choosing, installing, and configuring one for your personal or bus iness network. Firewalls For Dummies(R) helps you understand what firewalls are, how they operate on different types of networks, what they can and can't do, and how to pick a good one (it's easier than identifying that perfect melon in the supermarket.)

<p>Sams Teach Yourself TCP/IP Network Administration in 21 Days is a straightforward professional tutorial on the popular, but poorly documented protocol suite, TCP/IP. It teaches the reader how to set-up and maintain their network using the suite of TCP/IP protocols. From the basics about open systems, standards and protocols, SLIP and PPP, and security, to the ins and outs of using TCP &amp; IP, this book will teach the reader creatively--using quizzes, Q&amp;A, and workshop sections. Like Teach Yourself TCP/IP in 24 Hours, Teach Yourself TCP/IP Network Administration in 21 Days, 3E will cover all the topics a reader will need in order to implement TCP/IP onto their network. However, the 21 days book will go into more depth for each topic, taking the time (and pages) to explain and explore the nuances of this far-reaching suite of protocols more thoroughly for the network administrator.</p>
