Staying safe online
10 August 2008 @ 18:41 in Tutorials
I’ve
been wanting to write this for ages: my guide to staying
safe online is now available in the Tutorials section.
It’s a best practice guide covering lots
of general advice for identifying and dealing
with malicious websites and emails, and it
applies to Mac and PC users equally. This was
written, essentially, for my parents,
parents-in-law, and rockin’ octogenarian
internet-using grandmother, but even if
you’re not one of that select group, you
should still find it useful; if you do, please
forward it to ageing relatives, reckless friends
and web n00bs of every stripe. Oh, and give it a
Digg, why not?
