Explain "Hijack this"
I'm sorta new at all this! {know enough to be dangerous but I realize it!}. Is it an app ,program or method? I've noticed it all over this site.Always thought it pertained to hackers! now think it's a permission to look at someones pute stuff. Straighten me out and if there's a link to go to for study I'll be glad to. I did a search on TSG and got 338 pages! It's very popular but no definitions! "Hijack this" if you want to=Thanks!

Didnt know that existed RSM, thank you. I have developed an interest in this area & have been trying to "read" my own, laboriously but this makes things much easier.
