When say using sudo, it requires a password. But at the instance, I decide that I do not actually want to take the command (or forget the password and want to try again later). What should I do other than close the terminal externally?
Type Control-c to kill the command.

I'm using Microsoft, the instructor is teaching on his Mac. On Git Hub he copied the link and put it on "TERMINAL" I don't understand what it was, so I couldn't find that one to paste my link.
The terminal is the mac equivalent to the command prompt on windows, if you want to access it just type cmd in your start menu.

I'm logged in as root and i do:
su killyz && whoami
the user will switch but the whoami won't print until i Ctrl+D, why is that?
su opens a new shell and won't exit until that shell is closed, via Ctrl-D or some other method.

I'd like some quick tips to find out about my privacy being invaded. I've tried task manager and msconfig.
Use PeerBlock, it's a really good firewall and gives you a Log (once it said that some prince was trying to enter my pc, wtf?!) http://peerblock.com/

Sorry for the silly question...
How do I clear my terminal screen? Cause ctrl+U just doesn't seem to work. Or do I need to assign this command somewhere?
Thanks
Try CTRL+L. In alternative, you can run clear command.
