Hackers into personal and corporate web sites are viewed as invasive by computer professionals and consumers as traditional home burglars. On the browser side, three computer security experts offer break-in deterrent tips via user passwords and IDs, anti-cookie, and advanced anonymity strategies. Server-side security entails firewalls, privacy-conscious Java applets, CGI scripts, and encrypted payment protocols/products. An appendix deciphers cryptography basics. To further ensure that computer users don't get caught in unsecured webs, the authors
These guidelines explain how to make Web content accessible to people with disabilities.

Abstract
This document describes CC/PP (Composite Capabilities/Preference Profiles) structure and vocabularies. A CC/PP profile is a description of device capabilities and user preferences. This is often referred to as a device's delivery context and can be used to guide the adaptation of content presented to that device.
The Resource Description Framework (RDF) is used to create profiles that describe user agent capabilities and preferences. The structure of a profile is discussed. Topics include:
