Dear Yahoo!:
How can I learn about spies?
Ally
Reston, Virginia
Dear Ally:
Despite the fact that spies generally attempt to keep a low profile, it is possible to find information on famous (and infamous) secret agents. You just need to know where to look.

The Yahoo! Directory contains a Spies category, as well as subcategories for several noted operatives, ranging from civilian recruits to military pilots. You'll find sites on the Rosenbergs, Benedict Arnold, and Mata Hari, to name a few.

If you visit the Government > Intelligence category, you'll see a list of more general resources devoted to the business of spying. As we surveiled the category, some of the sites stood out from the pack. Intelligence and CounterIntelligence offers a great set of links to spy news, spy press releases, and, of course, other spy sites. At Intelligence Online you'll find pointers to categories such as Intelligence Services, Business Intelligence, Computer Security, Infowar and Money Laundering.

If you don't want spy information, but instead you want high-tech spy gadgetry, then you should browse through the list of companies found in Yahoo!'s Surveillance Equipment category.

If all else fails, just drop in on your neighbors in nearby McLean, Virginia. If the Central Intelligence Agency can't tell you what you want to know, then chances are you're better off not knowing in the first placeż
