This documentation is also available in Spanish thanks to Pablo Chammaro C. I don't speak spanish at all, so I'm afraid you'll have to contact him if you need help.

Other Writings

Data Mining project for CSI5387 -- My final project for this data mining course compared and classified several commonly-seen types of JavaScript code: ads and menus. The results may be interesting to those interested in web security, as classification occurs in odd ways.
Meet Mr. Compiler! -- A funny look at learning to program, inspired by the many problems my first year students have with the java compiler. I just wrote this to vent my frustration over how bad the compiler can be. I thought I should stop when I got to the part about 3.5 legged chipmunks.
Man RTFM -- There's not much point in telling people to RTFM if they don't know what it means or don't know how. This short doc is intended to help.
How Human Factors affects Security -- I wrote this essay for a security class a while ago. It's not perfect, but it's not a bad place to start if you want some information and references. Also available in PDF format.
