Spy story. Clifford Stoll had just started work running a huge central computer at a Berkeley lab when he was given the job of figuring out why the carefully kept user accounts were out by 75 cents. From this tiny beginning began a hunt for a mysterious hacker who was using the Californian computer as an electronic way station to infiltrate dozens of other systems -- including the most sensitive military, scientific and intelligence networks in America.
