Here are a few helpful pointers for your computer experience.
DONT
Store personal information on your computer or PDA. Stored data is always open to hackers. Consider storing passwords on CDs or disks that you keep locked in a box or closet.
Shop on-line without being sure of two safety features. Check the order page for the lock icon at the bottom. This way you know the system is encrypted and your personal data if transfered safely. The URL on the address bar should say https, the s stands for secure.
Store credit card information on a website. It may be more convenient, but its not safe.
Open or answer any unfamiliar e-mails. Just opening an email with an attachment, can add a worm to your computer. If you really think it might be from someone you know, hit reply and ask them to identify themselves. If that doesnt work, you know its junk.
Fall for phishers. Phishing is a new scam. There are cyber crooks looking for information. They ask for your credit card numbers and social security information, phone numbers or even email addresses. Never respond to these emails.
