Five Tips For Staying Safe On The Internet

For this article, I thought I would give 5 tips on ways to stay safe while on the internet. These are some very simple tips, but you would be surprised how many people fail to do these things. Anyway, let's get right to them.

First off, never give your passwords out to anyone. I don't care if someone instant messages you claiming to be from AOL, you shouldn't give your password out. You also should be careful of websites that look like official websites that ask for your password. If you are uncertain about the website, just type in the regular homepage address. That way you are sure you are on the actual homepage.

Make your passwords difficult for people to guess. This is such a simple tip, but you would be surprised how many people forget to do this. It's usually recommended to pick a password that has letters AND numbers in it. If you just pick a word in the dictionary, it is easier for someone to guess. Putting letters and numbers together makes it much more difficult. Also, putting special characters in your password is also good.

Do not download software from pop-up boxes. I'm talking about those boxes that sometimes come up when you go to a website. Often times they will pretend to be a warning message that says your computer is infected with Spyware. Don't download those software programs! They are most likely Spyware. If you want to know some legitimate Spyware removers, check out my blog where I have some listed. My blog address is at the bottom of this article.

Do not click on links in spam e-mails you receive! I cannot stress this enough. There is absolutely no reason that you should click on a link in an e-mail from someone you don't know. What is the worst that could happen if you do? Well, the link could take you to a website that will infect your computer with a virus through a security hole. That can happen just by visiting a website. Seriously, there is no reason to click on a link from someone you don't know. If you've got an e-mail from someone claiming to be from eBay wanting your password, then log in from the main website. If eBay really needs you to log in so bad that they are e-mailing you, I'm sure there will be a big notice right on your account when you do log in through the actual website.

And finally, be careful with what personal information you put on the internet. Unless you are ordering something, you should not need to give out your last name, home address, or home phone number. If I sign up for a website and they need something like my phone number, I just give them my cell phone number. Even that though I don't generally recommend.

Like I've said, there are a lot of people that are taken advantage of through the internet. If you make sure to follow these tips, you should have no problem.

Stay safe!(Justin Williams)

Your impressions on the internet

When you visit a website, the website will take the data that can be used to identify you, such as:

• IP address
• Name of provider
• PC Name
• Operating system
• Type of browser (user agent)
• browser plugin
• referrers
• the cookies
  

Data over the information that is known by too many website

How to prevent:
IP address: use anonymous proxy servers .

Referrers : refer to the website or link from which you came to visit the URL now. in opera browser setting, non-switch option "enable referrer logging"

User agent : refers to the type of browser used, this option is used in the opera browser but there is no more on the newest series

How to avoid identity theft

Publish any personal information in any form and on the internet is an action that can not be justified. However, we can not blame the social networking site just because they provide a place for its users to communicate and interact more comfortably. Awareness of the importance of the meaning of information security and data privacy already owned by each user's internet service itself.
To avoid this we can do some of the following ways:

• Do not write the information themselves in detail or in a public place accessible to the public.
• Even if do not have to write it all, make some data (not necessary all) that is not appropriate, may be age, date of birth job. But do not fill out with fake identity for the serious registration form.
  
• Avoid writing the name of parents, especially mother - given the many credit card companies still use the mother name as secret question.
• Avoid using a very precise answer to every secret question, for example, "who is your childhood hero" answer with the name of the school or your pets.
• Perform the removal or manipulation of data birthdays in social networking site
• Delete the history & surfing impression especially in public area, such internet cafe, office.
• Dont show/tell your ID or alias name to unknown or unfamiliar person.
  

Conficker...ga bisa konek...instal ulang

Udah sejak 2 hari lalu koneksi internet ku putus, yang kukira karena virus conficker, soalnya memang pernah terkena, walaupun sudah dibersihkan tetapi tetep juga ga pernah bisa konek nih speedy ku, udah diapa-apakan sama saja, padahal udah menurut buku manual, hasilnya tetep nihil :(, akhirnya hari senin, aku telpon layanan 147 tapi hanya sedikit membantu, kupanggil teman ku yang jago IT setelah lama mengutak-atik juga akhirnya menyerah, padahal sudah menelpon teknisinya juga, akhirnya kuputuskan pinjem modem teman yang sudah ga kepake lagi, ternyata settingannya ga sama dengan punyaku, dan akhirnya bisa lagi sekarang walaupun ga stabil, tinggal ngatur aplikasi yg berantakan gara-gara instal ulang & mengkonfirmasi pihak speedy buat ganti modem.

Eh ternyata tadi sore abis googling, dengan keyword "error connection" ,akhirnya menemukan kasus dalam sebuah blog yang sama dengan modem-ku, setelah putus asa dengan modem tetangga (merknya JKnetwork loh...)yang sering diskonek, akhirnya ada saran "hard reset" di blog itu, trus aku coba kembali kemasan modem huawei smartAX itu dan memasangnya lagi, dengan harapan siapa tahu bisa lagi, ga sengaja antara bagian port RJ11 dan RJ45 terdapat tulisan "RESET", hmm tampaknya ini mirip dengan colokan darurat pada optical drive, akhirnya aku pasang lagi tuh modem, pasang semua kabel, nyalakan, masuk ke webconsole dan colok tuh lubang reset pake obeng kecil dan 1st tes, akhirnya.....berhasil, hore!! :), thank god for your help and give me a patient...dan ga jadi nukar modem hihihi..

Masang speedy unlimited

Udah genap seminggu, aku berlangganan speedy unlimited, asalnya sih dari kejenuhan berinternet pake dial up yang bertarif mahal dan komputer warnet yang spek-nya tidak memuaskan walaupun koneksinya cukup bagus.

Seminggu yang lalu, aku bareng teman jalan-jalan ke FKI di DP mall semarang, iseng-iseng survei provider internet, pada mulanya sih tertarik pada jenis wireless, tapi setelah liat brosur tentang tarifnya, aku terus pikir-pikir lagian harga modemnya juga lumayan mahal kemudian aku mencoba keliling lagi dan lihat-lihat X banner telkomspeedy, ga disangka salesnya datang menghampiri kami berdua dan menjelaskan bla..bla...bla. tentang multi speed, sebenarnya aku kurang sreg dengan tarif yang mereka tawarkan 1 mbps dengan 50 jam denagn tarif IDR 145 ribu, dengan penambahan IDR 25/ menit kalau melewati, wah terang ga cocok dengan maniak download seperti aku, trus ada yang 384Kbps tapi ada unlimited dengan kuota 3 gb denga tarif IDR 195 ribu, tapi setelah melebihi kuota akan turun menjadi 128 kbps, setelah dipikir-pikir mendingan pilih yang ini aja, walaupun ga terlalu cepat tapi lebih cepat daripada telkomnet tapi bisa internetan “sak udele dewe”, lagian juga masih bisa dipake download lumayan cepat hehehehe.

Setelah semua administrasi beres, pada hari sabtu teknisinya datang dan memasang modem, oh ya modemnya ga bisa milih dan kudu pasrah dengan bawaannya speedy, kalo aku dapat yang Huawei smartAX, setelah semua beres dan akhirnya aku bisa online, online nya langsung tancap gas seharian, sekalian buat in run; download MP3 sebanyak-banyaknya, kebanyakan sih albumm symphonic rock berbahasa jepang kesukaanku, hasilnya baru 5 hari aja langsung mencapai separuh kuota, setelah itu kukurangi aja hobi ku ini, buat facebook an aja dan diskusi di forum penyiar kesayangan di webgaul aja, download-nya akhir bulan aja sekalian buat ngabisin kuota :)
