To capture, alter, and retransmit a
communication stream in a way that misleads the recipient. As used
by hackers, refers especially to altering TCP/IP packet source
addresses or other packet-header data in order to masquerade as a
trusted machine. This term has become very widespread and is
borderline techspeak.
