A few tips to keep in mind while surfing the net --

Computers are creating a profile of you as a result of your surfing.
Never give a credit card number unless the site is "secure" (Hint - Look for the "lock" in the lower left corner of the screen); Free services will never request credit card numbers.

Remember to uncheck the box that allows updates and other notices to be sent to you, unless you're lonely and enjoy receiving lots of e-mail.

Anyone can check where you've been on the Internet by hitting "control + h".

If you've been out surfing quite a bit, do a search from your start menu for "cache" and empty that folder once in awhile. Your computer will work better.

Sign up for and use a free email address when requesting material to be sent to you. Never use identifying screen names, and never reveal your address, phone number, etc. unless it's a secure site.

Be careful of copyright rules when using images, etc. from other sites.
