Well if you want to learn, read as much as you can, spend as much as you can in the library, or at home, in your own set up computer lab experimenting with all of it till you understand it all. And then maybe one day you'll understand it's not about destroying, but about knowledge,
but anyways, who am I? Just a lamer who knows [censored].
Never argue with fools... They will only drag you down to their level, and beat you with experience...

Step 1) Learn Definitions
Port, IP Address, Daemon/Server/Service, Client, Exploit, Backdoor, Trojan, Domain Name
Step 2) Understand what the Internet Is
What ports standard services typically listen on. What the DNS system is and how it works for you. How information is exchanged over the internet. Learning various protocols like HTTP, SMTP, FTP, an understanding of what Telnet is, and SSH.
Step 3) Learn Basic Networking
Networking hardware such as ethernet cards, modems, switches, routers and how they're configured, common network setups. Firewalls, and why they work. Know how TCP, UDP, PING, and DHCP works and learn more about DNS. Learn how routing is done over a network. Know what a subnet mask is. Know what a Gateway is. Learn how to retrieve the networking information for a given computer.
Step 4) Learn about Hacking/Programming
Go to security news sites and learn about common exploits that are in use today. Many exploits will require some programming knowledge, but not all.
I didn't go through this process, but I recommend it. My process is just doing what I want to do. I specialize in several areas because I've researched them because I wanted to accomplish some specific goal, but the bulk of my knowledge comes second-hand. I either figure things out from what I already know, hear it talked about, or happen to read it written about. It is amazing how much I've learned at this board. Maybe nothing really special at any one time... But bits of pieces make themselves known to me from time to time that all add up.
