Safety on the internet

[djay]

If you are not sure how well protected your computer is, in these days of baddies trying to get you, there is a new site which covers all aspects of online safety. It is clear and easy to understand.

I hope this information will be useful.

Hello Diane, Thankyou for posting this information, I am quite sure that most members will appreciare it. There are those people who simply rely on a virus checker (e.g. Norton antivirus) to keep them safe - how wrong they are!

In these days of easy downloads that are described as FREE, it is all to easy to get caught up in all kinds of problems. I have looked at this site you have given us and I reckon the advice is very good so if you folk have not had a look, do so now.

And thanks again to Diane for thr imformation link.

You're very welcome, Ronnie I always worry that I haven't done enough to protect my computer, especially with following links and downloading from various sites. It was recommended by the BBC, by the way.
