How To Practice Safe Computing?

1. EMT Dave Says

   You won’t catch a virus from using another person’s computer. However, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t use caution when using someone else’s computer, especially a public computer at a library or internet cafe.
   Be careful of using secure sessions (online banking, etc). If a keylogger is installed on the PC, it could grab your login and password. Like anything else, do you trust the owner of the computer? But in this area, even if you trust them, are they capable enough to keep their own computer secure? If you aren’t sure, be careful when inserting your writable media and going to websites where you must supply a login and password or other credentials that could be hijacked.
