One of the major adware / spyware companies states that currently 85% of all internet users have some form of adware / spyware on there PC today. And the most frightening fact of all was that in this study those computers had a least 24 instances of adware spyware hiding on their computer system and causing problems not only for the user but the system itself.

Once spyware has found a spot to hide, it will go right to it doing all kinds of malicious things to your system—from attacking you with pop-ups, hijacking your browser, to installing more adware parasites, or finding and distributing your personal information.

Ron Cripps has been involved in the internet for many years, and in that time has watched the internet become infected with adware spyware to the level that it now at plague porportions.
Ron has decided to take action against this adware spyware threat with a adware spyware review site

So you want to remember a past life, do you? Well, the first step to self-regression and discovering your past lives doesn’t have anything to do with memory or hypnosis. You need a place to start your exploration. You’ll want an idea of where to look when first you begin your regression. Where do you find this jumping-off point? No, I’m not going to give you a past-life quiz. Instead, I encourage you to think about yourself. Consider all the subjects that interest you, all the strange things that repulse you. For instance, maybe you’ve always wanted to go to Italy. Perhaps you love movies about knights in armor. Maybe you have an inexplicable fear of crows, or hate wearing jewelry around your neck. You might have a gift for painting, or a deep love for all things equestrian. Or just maybe you’re like my mom; she’s always been fond of saying she was a rice farmer in China in a previous life.

Whatever it is, this talent or fear or interest of yours might originate in a past life. Listen to it. Embrace it. Come to terms with it.

For some folks, the connection to one particular life is very strong. For instance, it’s probably safe to say that people who participate in reenactments of the American Civil War most likely lived through that conflict first hand. For me, the pull of eighteenth-century England is the most powerful influence, due to the lessons learned in that life carrying over into this one. For most people, though, there usually isn’t anything that clear-cut to focus upon, and past-life patterns aren’t readily apparent. You might have normal, modern interests like movies or shopping or spending time with your friends and family, and far away lands have never “called” to you. That’s fine. But if you look closely enough, you might find those modern activities actually have past-life origins. To give you an example from my own experiences: I like movies. This seems completely unrelated to any of my past lives. But I’ve uncovered past-life patterns over the years that I’ve since learned are connected to my eighteenth-century life as Mary Carter.

For instance, my favorite movies fall into three categories: movies involving England or starring British actors, movies starring certain actors I’ve been infatuated with, and movies that are extremely well written and well made. Now, everyone likes Oscar-nominated films – no past-life connections there. But when I began noticing that my earliest movie and television favorites starred actors with English accents, that’s when the past-life patterns started to emerge. Mrs. Clause had an English accent in some children’s Christmas cartoon, and I copied it as best I could, even at the age of six. At ten, we played “Space 1999″ on the playground, and I was always emulating Maya’s voice. Obi Wan Kenobi was my hero at eleven. At thirteen, Frank N. Furter fascinated me. All English voices, all powerful influences I have never forgotten. And it goes without saying that films like “Amadeus,” “Dangerous Liaisons,” “Valmont,” “Impromtu,” “Last of the Mohicans,” and “Sense & Sensibility” were films I saw over and over again. Now one would think there’d be no past-life connection in the work of Harrison Ford, Daniel Day-Lewis, David Duchovny, Val Kilmer and Johnny Depp. Wrong. Turns out these guys all have something about their facial features that reminds me of my past-life love. It’s in the shape to the chin, the wideness of the face, the hollow to the cheekbones, the freckles/moles, or the reddish-brown hair. Each actor represents something different about Thomas Carter, but if you smooshed them all together, you’d get my husband. And that’s what keeps me a fan of these actors above all else (except Mr. Depp, who is a special case). Moral of the story? Past-life patterns can be found in some surprising places.

All right, in my example above, I mentioned you might enjoy spending time with your family and friends. This can be part of a past-life pattern, too. The types of relationships you cultivate – or fail to cultivate – can be a hold-over from a past-life issue. For instance, my brother and I have from the very start never gotten along. Not like regular fighting siblings, no, this is different. Deep-seated grudges held since childhood for no apparent reason, and deep admiration at the same time. It’s complicated, but suffice it to say that on some level, we both remember arguments that happened long before I was a twinkle in my father’s eye. Exactly what occurred, I haven’t figured out, but it took place on the shores of Central America on a ship sometime in the 1500s, and he was the bosun – I was an ordinary sailor. The point is, if you have very strong connections to someone in your family, or severe problems with someone, or maybe, like me, you’ve failed to find a significant other at all, these things can be clues.

Now to address the shopping. Almost everyone likes to buy nice clothes. You might be the girl who goes to the mall every Saturday afternoon, or the guy who enjoys dressing his Metrosexual best. No worries. This could be related, a past-life pattern waiting to be found. In my case, I always have a great sense of what’s in style, although I like to be comfortable, so jeans are my best friend. But I know what’s hot. I do. As it turns out, Mary Carter (my 1790s self) was obsessed with fashion. The details I always remember best from that life are the clothes I see around me. I couldn’t tell you what I wore yesterday, but in 1788 I had some pretty amazing lilac-colored gloves. Go figure. So if you regularly read “In Style Magazine,” it might be part of a past-life pattern.

So what is the practical purpose to all this? What do you do with these past-life patterns? To use these examples, you’d find that you probably lived in England during the eighteenth-century, that there was an amazingly handsome guy around (against whom you measure every man in this life), and you were obviously hanging with well-to-do people, what with the nice wardrobe and all. Doesn’t mean you were the lady of the house. You might have been the maid. It doesn’t matter. It gives you a place to begin when you reach that relaxed, meditative state and you ask yourself, who was I in a past life? Instead, you can pose this question to your subconscious: “Who was I in the eighteenth century?” It’s like fishing with a worm instead of a bare hook. It might be the wrong bait, you might not land the marlin you’re trolling for, but at least it’s a start.

In the case of poor quality toner in a laser printer, the black areas won’t be as dense. However, now that good quality, name brand color laser printers are much more affordable, I think it is time for their reconsideration. Enter the color laser printer, which has a relatively low toner cost and does its best quality printing on inexpensive, plain laser paper. In addition, higher quality rag-content bond papers can also be used effectively with a color laser printer. SMEs need an inexpensive laser printer that achieves quality results quickly. If you’re intent on reproducing photos, you’re better off with a good quality inkjet printer instead of a laser.

Since then, laser printers have decreased further in price and increased in quality. A laser printer is a common type of computer printer that reproduces high quality text and graphics on plain paper. Toner Cartridge Depot presents a convenient way to purchase quality office products, laser printer toners, ink cartridges and printer cartridges at competitive prices. Plus, low-end colour lasers often produce colour output quality that rivals that of much more expensive printers. Quality, resolution, and colorThe standard resolution in most laser printers today is 1200 dots per inch (dpi). - Excellent quality: The text is very clear with no dots visible anywhere - exactly what you would expect from a quality laser printer.

When it comes to quantity and quality, I use a Laser printer and if it happens to be a color laser, so be it. Color laser printers are for people who want the speed and text quality of a black-and-white laser but require color, too. However, only the most expensive color laser printers can match the true photo quality of the best photo ink jets.

While colored toner is available, color laser printers are generally much more expensive. 30% of a new product · This product is a recycled version of the used toner cartridge for laser printer. The toner is black in most cartridges, but may be cyan, magenta, and yellow in color laser printers. Inexpensive color laser printers usually ship with a starter set of toner cartridges, which generally hold about a third of a normal cartridge. Last year the answer would have been “go inkjet” because of quirks in laser printer toner technology. Color laser printers add colored toner (typically but not always cyan, yellow, and magenta

see CMYK) in three additional steps or passes. bulk toner will do but must include instructions for my minolta qms 2300 DL laser printer. Click here to save on laser printer toner. Firstly, if I went out and spent this much on a laser printer I wouldn’t expect to be shafted with a ’starter toner pack’. When it comes to laser printers, the main consumable cost you will encounter is toner cartridge replacement. A slightly modified colour laser printer addresses these toner particles to a solid support. Because an entire page is transmitted to a drum before the toner is applied, laser printers are sometimes called page printers. In a write-black printer the laser positively charges the printed areas to attract the toner, which gives better detail than a write-white printer.

Built on an advanced print engine, this 8ppm monochrome laser printer is productive and easy to use. First, laser printer cartridges are able to print thousands of pages and are usually cheaper per page than inkjet cartridges. Dot-matrix printers can print up to 500 cps, and laser printers range from about 4 to 20 text pages per minute. Because laser printers do not use ink, they have less image smearing problems than inkjet printers and are able to print pages faster. The result is a color laser printer that is ready to print as soon as you connect it. Today a comparable laser printer that boasts more memory, a higher print speed and duplexing capability can be had for about $300.00. The fastest color laser printers can print over 60 pages per minute (3600 pages per hour).

The laser printer does not print in color, but my project didn’t require color. If you print a lot, you too may want to consider adding a laser printer to your computer set-up. So whenever I click on the print icon, the document is automatically sent to the laser printer. Most laser printers print only in monochrome. The application being used must support Postscript in order for the laser printer to print Postscript documents. A laser printer with duplex printing can print on one side of the paper, turn the paper over, and print on the other side.

As 2005 begins, there are a number of products on the market which enable Emergency Response Units to have internet connectivity at remote disaster locations. The products marketed this year mount on vehicles from Fire Rescue units to most any type of truck or van, on specially designed trailers utilizing portable generators and in transportable boxes which can be shipped by UPS or Fed X overnight to most any location in the U.S. A response team’s greatest challenge is to know enough about how this mobile satellite internet technology works and what the differences are in quality of transmission based on the equipment chosen and services provided by the Satellite Internet Provider.

To make the right decision at the onset of the process of buying vsat mobile satellite internet equipment will save your Government Agency thousands of dollars in the long run. How do you evaluate what the best combination of equipment and service will be? Here is the process I recommend to the Government Agencies I speak to around the country:

1. Determine what you will need to do on the internet in an emergency.

Will you need to send digital pictures to other locations? Will you need to establish a VPN connection to Headquarters? Will you want to “live stream” a camera over the internet? Do you need telephone capability over the net (VOIP) in a very remote location that has no cell phone connectivity? Do you need to connect multiple computers at the remote site engaged in the above activities or engaged in heavy emailing? All but emailing requires either low latency (1/2 second or less) or fast upload speeds (sustained speeds above 128kbps)…..some of these activities need both!

If you need ANY of these capabilities, you need to look seriously at the Enterprise Class of equipment available today. This is not Direcway or Starband powered equipment! They are fine companies; however, in spite of all they can do, the important fact is: These companies can’t or won’t provide enough upload (in-route) speed or low enough latency to work effectively at the tasks listed above – period!

2. Determine what type of installation will provide your Emergency Response team the most flexibility in an Emergency.

When time is of the essence, you need a mobile setup that can be taken to a disaster site in a hurry and is available at a moments notice to be on it’s way. A self contained vehicle mount is the most popular, in part due to the fact that it was all that was available until 2003 and until recently, the least expensive. Many Government Agencies don’t have the budget to have such a vehicle “sit around” waiting for a disaster. They need to utilize the vehicle all the time and have a legitimate concern that when the need arises, the vehicle won’t be able to get to a location in the time frame needed……what then? Many Government agencies I speak to have recently opted for a trailer mounted system combined with a portable generator or the “transportable” unit which is two or three “boxes” that contain all the gear needed to quickly establish a broadband connection to the internet and can be shipped overnight by Ground Carriers if needed at a distant location. In this scenario, the monthly service is a minimal cost and when the need arises, can be ramped up to whatever speeds are required in a matter of minutes. This can save the Government Agency an enormous amount over the years. It has only been offered by the “big boys” in this business who have figured out how to make money with this type of service by dedicating transponders that handle more accounts than you normally would have as a result of the infrequent use.

The best way to make sure your investment in this equipment is a wise one is to contact an independent provider who can give you a “No Spin” analysis of your situation and recommend the right solution to your organization.

As a kid, I adored collecting lots of colored and scented papers. When I grew up, though practicality found its way in my mind. Now, I see papers as they are — to be used for writing and for printing. Printing technologies have allowed for many kinds of paper to be used.

Have you ever visited a paper store? Yes, lots of paper there, of various shades, size and volume. White papers are even varied — as you may probably notice, too. There are white papers that have soft cream coloring, while others have soft gray, soft blue and even a soft pink aura about them. Once you view them separately, you'll identify them as they appear to be — of a white color. The thing is, when you view them next to other white papers about, you'll be able to detect easily that they differ very much in color.

As always accepted and viewed professionally, most people want their official letters and other professional print jobs printed out clean on white paper. Aside from the fact that it's the most common color, white paper also offers the greatest amount of flexibility regarding paper weight availability. However, there are hundreds of colored paper stocks that might be considered, too.

If you have a print job on the run, does it matter what paper color you should use? And if yes, then what's the most important thing to consider when choosing a paper color?

Actually, the color of the paper almost always affects the whole print output. Depending on the colored stock you use and the prints you wanted. And the most important thing to consider is what will be printed on the paper.

- White paper — the definite choice if you are going to have full-color photos printed. Sometimes, a designer may use a white background for photos, then, colors will print as expected and then the designer will have the benefit of appearing to have a colored paper stock.

- Colored paper stock — plain, solid and bold texts or photos printed. It is quite advisable when using colored stock is to cover most of the page with a light tint of an ink color.

Indeed, the color of the paper significantly changes the way a photo looks. Any photo — whether of a person, a landscape or a still image can appear radically different when printed on a colored paper. The spot ink colors in the prints will shift also against colored paper stock.

So there's the lesson, folks, if you are considering a colored paper stock, you should plan from the beginning of the project how to make the printed output look in eventuality. Choose carefully and consider everything with your designer. By doing this, you'll be able to avoid unpleasant surprises and save time and money, too!

Please be aware of this, as I have had these calls from the switch board – if you receive one hang up IMMEDITELY!!!
Phone Fraud – Warning from the Police 11 May 2005 we have been advised of a telephone fraud currently in operation, this applies to home and work telephone, landlines and mobile phones. If you receive one of these calls, upon answering the telephone you will hear a recorded message congratulating you on winning and all expenses trips to an exotic location. You will then be asked to press 9 to hear further details. If you press 9 you will be connected to a premium rate line that cost approximately £20 per minute. Even if you disconnect immediately, it will remain connected for a minimum of 5 minutes costing around £100. The final part of the call involves you being asked to key in the postcode and house number, which has other serous consequences. After a further 2 minutes you will receive a message informing you that you are not one of the lucky winners. The total bill by then will be £100. Since the calls are originated from outside the UK, BT and other telephone companies are left relatively powerless to act. The only save solution is to HANG UP before the message prompt you to dial 9. Even safer HANG UP on any unsolicited “free offers calls”. There is another scam operating on mobile phones as well. A missed call comes up. The number is 0709 020 3840, the latest four number may vary, but certainly the first for will remain the same. If you call this number back you will be charged £50 per minute.
People have complained about their phone bills, once they have realised the cost of the call, but apparently this is completely legal. So beware, do not call back numbers beginning with 0709.

Most of the Mp3 players’ manufacturers plan their product for the purpose of listening to music. However, in the past couple of years more and more MP3 players are used for listening to audio books. There is a difference between the needs using the MP3 players for audio books and for MP3 music. If you consider using your new MP3 player for listening to audio books take into account the following considerations:

1. Behavior after interruption – This is the most important consideration you should take into account. When listening to audio books not as listening to music, you want to continue listening from the point you have stopped and not from the beginning. Most MP3 player do not have the option to continue from the exact point in the audio book but from the beginning of the same file. However, some MP3 players do not have a continuation option and start from the beginning of the audio book after an interruption.

When you shop a new MP3 player check it – play an audio book, take off the batteries, then put the batteries back and check if the MP3 player start from the beginning of the same file or from the beginning of the audio book.

2. Memory – The required memory depends on the MP3 format of the audio book, the length of the audio book and the number of audio books you wish to upload to your MP3 player.

MP3 players usually come with a flash memory. You can add a memory card to most of the players. The minimum memory required is 128Mb (less will be enough for a short audio book of about 6 hours). Try getting the biggest memory possible of a combination of flash memory and memory card.

3. Volume – The loudness is one the main problems in relation with audio books. Some MP3 players have an annoying limitation of the high volume. Hence, It is almost impossible to listen to the audio book in a noisy surrounding as an airplane, train or a gym room. Our advice is to put the head phones in the shop and make sure there is a loud volume that will be sufficient for listening to audio books.

Yet, Most MP3 players make the experience of listening to an audio book far better than listening to audio books on CD and books on tape. Try it, you can even download free audio books and get a free MP3 player.

911 Corp. has executed an independent research to find the best place to get audio books from. Find out the clear results and all about audio books only on the Audio books on CD and more.

What do the following five online activities have in common?
1. I download and swap music files

2. I visit chat rooms
3. I play online games
4. I buy and sell on eBay
5. I’m researching my family tree

They are not only five of the most common activities that people do online they are also potentially the most dangerous as they expose you to the real risks posed by scam artists, stalkers and worse that look for new victims each and every day.

Are you truly aware of the hidden dangers that lurk online waiting to strike at the unwary? I’m prepared to wager that you’re not. It’s far more likely that you’ll be as blissfully unaware as everyone else perhaps with that mix of ignorance and arrogance that “nothing can happen to you” that makes you an ideal victim!

Perhaps you also think that online security is a bit of an urban myth that has been blown out of all proportion by the media and companies selling security software. Unfortunately, there is a world of stalkers, scam artists and even terrorists working to their own agenda and that agenda includes you or your family.

Luckily, there’s something you can do about it right now – but first let’s look at what really lurks behind these seemingly innocent activities.

1. I download and swap music files
If you’re caught in the culture of the internet that is a grey area at the best of times and you think that “everything online should be free” and that there’s “nothing wrong with peer-to-peer networks” you face some real dangers and not from record companies looking for royalties!

As soon as you step into such a grey area you put yourself more at risk then normal because the scammers and fraudsters know that you can’t really complain without revealing your own illegal behaviour. The same is true of cons linked to dubious websites as they know you’re vulnerable.

The nature of such networks is equally worrying as they permit anyone to connect to your computer with the aim of swapping a music or video file. If you look at it as the equivalent of leaving your front door open to the person delivering a pirated DVD and you should become more alarmed.

The truth is that many people often get more then they bargained for as viruses and spyware can also be included with that new track.

These can cause you untold problems with the worst being one’s that you only find out about when it’s too late. It’s only when the letters start arriving from the bank that you discover that a trojan or spyware has copied everything you’ve typed, including your user name and passwords to every account you’ve accessed and sent them unseen to the hacker who is busy stealing your identity and running up huge debts in your name.

2. I visit chat rooms
You face several dangers when you enter public chat rooms. Not everyone will be who they seem to be and some have extremely distasteful agendas such as recruiting people to their cause, propaganda and stalkers.

Stalkers are not the figment of the imagination of an over zealous media they do exist and target the vulnerable online. They hide behind several identities that they have carefully crafted to select and test their victims. These are not only children that they are grooming for abuse but also adults that are threatened, conned, blackmailed and manipulated into handing over financial information.

If that wasn’t enough there are also representatives from what most would consider to be sick sites in chat rooms and on forums recruiting more to their cause. These include political groups of both extremes, religious groups including fronts for terrorism and well deviants such as “pro-ana” sites that teach young impressionable girls that “being thin is more important that being healthy”!

3. I play online games
Playing games online may seem a harmless activity but it’s that impression that can put you at risk as you will be off your guard. Game downloads can contain spyware, especially those to unlock pirate copies and stalkers inhabit gaming chat rooms.

4. I buy and sell on eBay
There are the obvious problems of eBay where trust in a buyer or seller can sadly be misplaced including a recent case when a gang stole huge amounts of money from thousands of bidders by demanding payment in cash or electronic cash transfer and then sent nothing in return.

You are also open to many more dangers. You will receive false or “phishing” emails claiming to be both from eBay and Paypal suggesting that if you don’t check your details immediately your account will be frozen. If you fall for this con that is carried out on an industrial scale you could not only give away your account details but also your credit card number as well.

5. I’m researching my family tree
Carrying out research in your family tree can make you incredibly open about personal information. Details such as your mother’s maiden name and previous schools are common and invaluable to an identity fraudster looking to open or access an account in your name.

What can you do about it?
There are two things that you should do today to protect yourself, your family and your computer.

1) Go to www.911stalkers.com or www.999stalkers.com and take the free test to fully evaluate how clued up or clueless you are about online security. You can either download it as a free ebook and then email it to your friends or you can do a version online via a link at the top of the page. It is vital that you open your eyes and see the true dangers that you face each and every time you are online.

2) Do something about it. Naturally, I’d suggest my ebook Scams, Stalkers and Online Security that uses 14 real life case studies to highlight the problems and then provide step-by-step practical solutions that everyone can follow. If you decide to buy that or find your own solution then please ensure that you and your family are safe online. Doing nothing is not an option.

AURA FAQs

Here are some frequently asked questions about reading auras.
I am not seeing any auras

There are several reasons why you are not seeing auras. Here are some of them:
You have not prepared yourself properly.
You are not in tune with the other person’s energy. Some people’s auras are harder to read than others are.
In this case, make an extra effort and keep in mind that you may not be able to read everyone’s energy.
You are either sick, tired, or under stress. At this point, you should postpone reading until you are better.
The person that you are reading is sick, tired, or depressed. When people are sick or depressed, their auras get smaller and less vibrant; hence, they are hard to read.
Aura reading is easier for some people than others. You may need to take a class or buy special equipment, such as aura glasses.
In addition, regular attendance at a meditation group where you can learn to focus your attention and read other’s energies is useful.

I am not seeing any colors in auras

It takes a lot of time and practice to see colors in auras. Sometimes, the colors are very muddy and hard to distinguish. Not all auras have colors. The best thing to do is to keep practicing. Eventually, you will see colors.

What do I do to protect myself against negative energy?

If you meet negative energy while doing readings, you need to protect yourself psychically. To do this, imagine your whole body surrounded by white light.

I am seeing entities and energy other than aura

The spiritual realm, on which auras exist, is filled with all sorts of entities, ranging from loving and positive (such as angels) to annoying or even dangerous.
Here are some types of entities that you may be encountering:
Spirit guides and guardians attached to the person you are reading.
Thought forms or psychic imprints. Thought forms can be negative or positive and usually produced by intense brooding. Oftentimes, they maybe indication of physical illness, depression, or mental illness. Many times, they are attached to the individual that you are reading.
Astral travelers. Oftentimes, when we are dreaming or in a coma, our spirits leave the body and travel to other places.
Ghosts–These can be spirits of the person’s loved ones or they may have a connection to the house that you are reading in.
The spirits of living people who are either dreaming, in a coma, or engaged in astral travel.
Remember that, in all cases, your focus is on the person to the reader. The first thing you should be is determine their relationship to the person being read. Describe the spirit entities to your client and see if he can identify them. If the energies are at all negative, protect your psychically by surrounding you and the person you are reading with white light.
If possible, address the entities and ask them why there are here and if they have any information, which may help the person, whom you are reading. In any case, whatever entities, you should determine what information they are trying to give to you about the person you are reading.
Can I be a Christian, Moslem, Jew, etc. and read auras?
The belief in auras is not tied to any specific religious tradition. Throughout history, advanced spiritual people such as Buddha, Christ and their immediate students were painted with golden haloes around their heads, because some artists could actually see auras. In Australia remote West Kimberleys, you can find prehistoric cave paintings (right), many thousands of years old, depicting people with golden haloes. All religions have had the concept of positive spiritual energy, the equivalent of the Chinese concept of chi and the Christian concept of grace. Working with spiritual energy help you become a more spiritually balanced person and eventually a better Christian, Moslem, and so

There is no doubt that identity theft is a growing problem and we should all try to educate ourselves to avoid being a victim of this often devastating crime. It seems that criminals are using increasingly ingenious methods to gain access to our private and valuable personal information and computer users must be aware of criminal information gathering techniques known as phishing.

You may have heard about phishing scams in the news recently because so many have fallen prey to this clever methodology employed by tech savvy criminals. We are all busy in todays fast paced world and it’s hard to keep up with every new threat and development so the purpose of this article is to describe what phishing is, and how you can avoid being a victim.

Phishing attacks employ social engineering and technical subterfuge in the attempt to obtain an individual’s personal identity data and financial account information. Social-engineering schemes use fraudulent e-mails which attempt to direct consumers to counterfeit websites, often perfectly replicating legitimate business sites to trick recipients into releasing financial data such as credit card numbers, account passwords, user names and social security numbers. Hijacking brand names of banks, online retailers and credit card companies, phishers regularly obtain this private data. Technical subterfuge schemes usually plant spyware and crimeware onto user computers to access personal data directly, most often utlizing Trojan keylogger spyware.

What can we do to avoid such clever deceptions? First of all just knowing that the threat exists is very important and many victims report that they had never heard of phishing before becoming a victims. In addition there are several practical precautions we can all take to minimize our exposure to risk.

1. Be wary of any email containing urgent requests for financial information suggesting your immediate response is required, statements designed to upset and excite the respondent are often included to elicit a quick reply. These emails often demand user names and passwords as well as SSN’s. Legitimate businesses never ask for confidential data via email and none of this information should ever be sent by email as security is severely compromised.

2. If you question the authenticity of an email don’t use the links embedded in the email to access the company webpage, instead type the URL of the company in your browser to insure you are looking at the legitimate website. You can also phone the company to insure an email request is authentic and companies today are aware of phishing threats and will generally appreciate being informed of a potential problem.

3. Financial information should only be communicated through a secure website or by telephone and never by an email request. Secure websites always have the https:// preceding the web address rather than just http:// in the browser address window.

4. Check your online accounts on a regular basis even if you have no transactions, dormant and little used accounts are common targets for online predators. Carefully review your credit card statements for unauthorized transactions and make sure your shred them if not retained for your records.

5. Make sure your browser is updated regularly with the latest security patches and you should also have an anti-spyware program installed and running at all times.

Take these necessary precautions to avoid your exposure to the identity theft problem known as phishing.
