in Security+
I passed Sec+ last week. 
Initially, I wasn't going to post, since many have mentioned that they have passed. I reconsidered, hoping it may help someone. I studied for the test right after Net+. So, a lot of topics carried over. I was worried about the performance questions in the beginning, but they weren't hard at all. Not at all.
I studied for 2 What I used to study (for 2 months):
Security+ Certification Study Guide - Glen E. Clarke (contains a lot of good exercises); Practice Exams - Clarke, Lachance
Get Certified Get Ahead; Practice Test Questions - Darril Gibson (easy read. Read it in five days. Great book Darril!)
Professer Messer videos
...and... this forum (Thanks people for posting. It gave me an insight of what to expect.
I bought Mike Meyer's Passport book, also. It's just ok. Gave me a headache. Maybe the small print, dense read, or maybe brain overload. But I read through it anyhow.
You might find some things that are useful.
Well...onto Linux...
