  9. Think B4 U Post Internet privacy is an illusion. Don’t post what you don’t want the entire world to see! Communicate respectfully online (chatrooms, blogs, networking sites, instant messaging (IM), etc.) Once it is online, it will always be there somewhere, even if you delete it.

  10. Think B4 U Click • Be cautious with email attachments and links. • Never open an email attachment from someone you don't know. For that matter, be very cautious when opening an email attachment from people you DO know, unless you know exactly what the attachment contains. www.microsoft.com/protect

  11. Be Careful of Downloads • Do not download and install software without permission. • Once permitted, only download from known or trusted websites. • Read privacy statements.

  12. Use the Red “X” to Close Pop-ups • Always use the red “X” in the corner of a pop-up screen. • Never click “yes,” “accept,” or even “cancel,” because it could be a trick that installs software on your computer. www.microsoft.com/protect
