    I was surprised that Adam didn’t write about tsrpc or pinex.c!

    Maybe he is saving that greatness for the sequel?

    Hey! That is my friend, Adam Greene!
    He wrote a book!
    He dedicates it to me!
    Holy Bas Alberts!

    Does it provide a chapter on Eye-Fuzzing?

    Finally, a book that teaches me the meaning of the -e ‘print “A” x 5000′ thing that KF has been sending to bugtraq for the last two decades!

    Can I get a copy signed by all three authors? I would like to auction it on eBay for charity.

    Just got this book yesterday and have gone through most of it. An very timely book.

    I recently attended a demo by the Mu Security. In the past few years I have attempted to generate test data using CFGs and used home-grown mutations utilities, for trying to break the network protocols, something similar to what Mu has done, but with cheaper tools :-). However this book really pulls everything together in terms of the overall background, tools and methodologies.

    After a long time I actually went through a book cover to cover, in one night.

    Great job, including funny Bush comments :-)

    Hi,

    I bought your book last week and it has been very useful. I think that in page 18 in the “Pros and Cons” section. I suppose that the phrase “The disadvantages of black box testing include the following:” must be “The disadvantages of gray box testing include the following:”. If I’m wrong let me know why ;)

    Att, João Medeiros

    PS: Congratulations for the great book.
