To put this into perspective the following terms hadn't been coined yet

• CSRF/XSRF/Cross-site Request Forgery
• XST
• Web 2.0
• AJAX/XMLHTTP
• Silverlight
• CRLF Injection
• SDL/SDLC
• Firefox
• Clickjacking
• Sidejacking
• HTTP Request Smuggling
• HTTP Response Splitting
• HTTP Response Splitting
• HTTP Response Smuggling
• Session Fixation
• XML Injection
• XPath Injection
• XQuery Injection
• LDAP Injection

and the following security sites didn't yet exist

• Ha.ckers.org/sla.ckers.org
• GNUCitizen
• Jeremiah Grossman's Blog
• OWASP
• WASC
• Darkreading

That is all.
