Dear people
This may be of some help to someone - perhaps the newer user who is at odds with how to keep safe online. It was featured today on 'Steve Wright in The Afternoon' (BBC Radio 2). Here's the blurb from the BBC website:
This is the official site for a new campaign aimed at raising awareness of how to protect yourself online. Even if you start to glaze over at the mention of concepts like Viruses, spyware, spam, hackers and identity theft, this site is a good first port of call for anything to do with online security. Jargon is kept to a minium and when it is used you'll notice a dotted line underneath a word which links you straight to a definition .
There's advice for all computer owners - not just Windows users. If you have a computer security problem you can go straight to a Help! I've got a problem! section for specific advice. Or if you're not sure how to ensure your computer is safe from attack, a 10-minute beginners guide aims to give you a general security MOT.
