2. Check / adjust ALL your settings so they are safe, since they ARENT by default!

3. Use firewall, like Zone Alarm!

5. Get a good antivirus program: F-Secure or Norton Antivirus and keep it updated!

6. Don’t open or execute files that you are not 100% sure are absolutely safe nomatter where or how you get them.

7. Wipe your historyfiles (like cookies, internet history and temporary files, etc.), logs and personal files, with specific wiping program (like Eraser) instead of just deleting them.


8. Use encryption to enhance your privacy! Use encrypted email (like Hush mail or Zip lip) and encrypt sensitive files on your computer (PGP).

9. Don’t use public computers for anything you need to type in your logins, they usually have Trojan horses that capture your passwords.

10. Don’t assume anything. If you don’t know, find out! If you can’t or don’t understand, ask someone who knows! There’s nothing more dangerous than doing something you don’t really know anything about. 


That’s the best way to cripple your system or get a Trojan horse on your computer!
