HEY KIDS, DON’T
CHAT WITH STRANGERS ! |
| Your
Parents are RIGHT when they say “DON'T TALK
TO STRANGERS”. As far as possible NEVER
talk with strangers in chat rooms. You really
don't know who the person is that you are
chatting with. Because you can't see or
even hear the person it would be
very easy for someone to mislead
you.

|
ASK
YOUR PARENTS AND SURF
|
|
Only
surf where your parents have given
you permission. There's a reason
why they restrict your surfing area
and you should listen to them. |
| If
a web site looks suspicious or has
a warning page about you being underage,
leave immediately. Some
sites are not meant for kids Do
not go exploring. If you
come across a site that you aren't
sure about ask your parents. Don't
download any applications from the
internet that are from questionable
sites. Some sites have
viruses which come free with the
downloads ! So be very careful with
downloads. Better be safe
than sorry.

PASSWORDS |
| Passwords
are a secret so don't give out your passwords
to anyone. Do not fill any online forms
without asking your parents. Never put your
email password on any website while registering.

install the latest anti-virus programmers.
|
KEEP
A WATCH |
|
If
someone is sending you e-mails you don't
like tell your parents. Never reply to
e-mails from strangers. If you have got an
e-mail attachment even from a known person,
do a virus scan before opening.
