Firewalls do not a fortress make
Article Abstract:
The Internet's security systems remain weak, and much of the network is unable to protect itself properly against attacks by hackers. There are a number of ways in which illegal access to the system can be gained quite easily, and hackers can obtain as much information as they want. Hackers first take over a host, and can then get logged on as an operator and create a new identity. At present, the main form of defence for computer operators on the Internet is the firewall program, but this has not proved effective against the most skilled hackers.

Cure me - and make it snappy
Article Abstract:
Some therapists are now starting to offer courses of only a few sessions which focus heavily on finding solutions and setting goals rather than on analysing what happened in the past. Clients are encouraged to build on positive experiences, and are often able to find their own solutions very quickly. Some observers believe that this approach may simply be a response to market forces, with limited funds being available for lengthy courses of therapy.
