Ways of Staying Safe Online

• Search the internet using popular search engines - using obsure search engines may leave you in a lot of trouble with comprimised databases.
• Never use the word, free, as a keyword - you'll have an unbelieveable amount of illict sites at your disposible.
• Look at the domain name extension - If the domain extension looks obscure, its probably not somehwere you want to go.
• Do not download anything from unknown web-sites - if you never saw this web-site before, ask around, or search the history of the web-site.
• Turn off Javascript - If your allowing javascript to run actively, you may encounter viruses be loaded into memory.
• Update Your Security Software - You must always be running up to date anti-spyware, and anti-viruses.
• Do not use your administrator account - if you get a virus by accident, it acquires the rights of the user, but if your online a restricted user, it can't do anything damaging.
