What about security?
Having a high-speed, always-on connection to the Internet requires a certain amount of
responsibility to other Internet users — including the need to maintain a reasonably secure
system. While no system is 100% secure, you can use the following tips to enhance your
system's security:
■
Keep the operating system of your computer updated with the latest security patches.
Run the system update utility at least weekly.
■
Keep your email program updated with the latest security patches. In addition, avoid
opening email containing attachments, or opening files sent through chat rooms,
whenever possible.
