部分词条英文解释原文： Phish (fish´ing) (n.) The act of sending an e-mail to a user falsely claiming to be an established legitimate
enterprise in an attempt to scam the user into surrendering private information that will be used for identity
theft. The e-mail directs the user to visit a Web site where they are asked to update personal information,
such as passwords and credit card, social security, and bank account numbers, that the legitimate
organization already has. The Web site, however, is bogus and set up only to steal the user’s information.
Spam Electronic junk mail or junk newsgroup postings. Some people define spam even more generally as any
unsolicited e-mail. However, if a long-lost brother finds your e-mail address and sends you a message, this
could hardly be called spam, even though it’s unsolicited. Real spam is generally e-mail advertising for some
product sent to a mailing list or newsgroup.
Packet Sniffer A packet sniffer (also known as a network sniffer, network analyzer or protocol analyzer or, for particular
types of networks, an Ethernet sniffer or wireless sniffer) is computer software or computer hardware that can
intercept and log traffic passing over a digital network or part of a network.[1] As data streams flow across
the network, the sniffer captures each packet and eventually decodes and analyzes its content according to
the appropriate RFC or other specifications.
