Re: opinions wanted (computer forensics)
He probably needs to read up on the usage of Harvard Referencing (or ask one of the Uni Library staff to explain it).
If it helps, here's an example of Harvard Referencing ( from an essay I wrote last year.....)

This increase in funding had led to a increase in student numbers nationwide of 44% (Times Higher 2010 THES2), and at the University, student numbers had risen from nn,nnn in 1997 (HESA 1997 H1) to nn,nnn in 2008 (HESA 2008 H2), with a growing willingness amongst the Student population to highlight issues they believed needed to be addressed, such as teaching spaces and provision, and the associated infrastructure and support......
.....Burns (Burns 1978) made the distinction between transactional and transformational leadership, and Bass (Bass 1985) expanded on this. Transactional leaders motivate followers by exchanging or withholding rewards for services rendered, whilst transformational leader move followers upwards on Maslow’s Hierarchy (Maslow 1954), from the needs for safety & security to work for higher goals and self-actualising needs.

You put a short reference to the source author/book/web page/article in brackets next to the quote/reference, and then the full title/year/date accessed in the references section.
Hope this helps.
btw, I notice he had put wikipedia as one of his sources - he probably needs to check if this is acceptable at his institution.
