Are young people really illmenered today?

The perception that young people are ill-mannered often stems from generational differences in communication styles and social norms. While some may view behaviors like casual language or digital communication as disrespectful, many young people exhibit kindness and consideration in their interactions. Additionally, societal factors such as increased stress and changing family dynamics can influence behavior. Ultimately, generalizations about manners may overlook the diversity and complexities of youth today.

How can adolescents be responsible and protect themselves in cyberspace?

The best way to protect yourself is NOT to share your private information, like your address, phone number, school, etc. with anyone on the internet. That means not to post that information anywhere, as well as not to give it out to individuals. It also means that you do not post personal information about your friends or family on the Internet. If you want to protect yourself even better, don't post your real name on the Internet. That might seem harmless, but information can be found with just a name.

Also, remember that anyone can say anything on the Internet. A preditor could say he/she is a teenager and even post a fake picture just to get information from you. So, always think with your mind and not with your emotions. That great looking, smooth talking guy might be a much older person seeking his next victim.

And always remember, too, that your parents are not your enemies when they limit your involvement on the Internet. Part of being responsible is acting within the limits they set for you. Believe it or not, life has a way of teaching you things that your parents understand, but you probably don't understand yet.

And speaking of parents, if you believe someone is a threat to you or others, tell your parents!

One last "tip:" Never, never ask what you might think are harmless questions about yourself or people you know, or post anyone's phone numbers or other personal information on sites like WikiAnswers. There are reasons questions about non-celebrities or other very well-known people are not allowed on Q&A sites. The most important reason is personal safety.

How can i report illegal photos of myself posted by someone else on the internet without my approval?

It's economical. Or you can go to other reputation sites. And you can do it by yourself. Look up the contact on the website and contact them.

What proxy do you use to disable parental controls?

there is no proxy to disable parental controls however you could reset the administrators password without even knowing it then once your in you can disable them manually

there are 2 ways to do this

1. wait until one of your parents is clumsy enough to leave there administrator logged on while they do something else

or

2. burn a password reset device onto a disc and then boot the pc from the disc

here's an example http://pcsupport.about.com/od/toolsofthetrade/ss/ophcracksbs_4.htm

NOTE: I do not take any responsibility for your pc getting messed up this is

a do it at your own risk

if you do manage to get hold of the account (it was left logged on)

click start

then type "cmd" in the search bar other wise create a notepad and type in

"command.com" then save it as a .bat file

double click on the cmd/.bat file and type in "net user"

this will show you all the accounts you have on this pc

then type "net user administrator active" this will activate the account and

turn it on so you can access it.

next thing to do is type "net user administrator *" notice i put the star symbol after administrator. once you have typed that it will tell you to put a new password in. note that when you type the password it will not show anything.

and then you have successfully opened the admin's account simply

switch user to go into it and make the changes you want to your parental controls.

the reason this WILL NOT work on a STANDERD user area is beacuse you will get "system error 5"

hope this helped

Can someone find out where you live through Twitter...Is there a way to hack through Twitter?

No, only if you supply that information. And yes, there is a way to hack. It's really hard to do it, though, and you must be a big hacker.

Added: Your service provider knows from which phone or instrument the messages originated - that's how they bill you for your airtime usage. If it becomes a legal question - their records can be subpoeana'd and the messages traced back to your phone.

When a chat account such as AIM is hacked can the hacker IM others as the person whos account they hacked?

Yes, they certainly can because they are being YOU! Then as the time goes on they have hacked it, you can see if they have been chatting and IMing other users that IM your account, which they think it is you...

Is torrentprivacy legit?

Torrent Privacy looks like a VPN Service like PeerGuardian but the Terms of Service say you can't use it for any illegal activity.

And unlike the post some answered below. All torrent sites are legit. Just not all the download links you click.

"No torrent website is "legit", they will all give you viruses and the time it will take you to remove those it is well worth buying whatever you would download yourself"

What is bad request invalid verb?

SYMPTOMSIn Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0, when a request contains a header name that includes a question mark (?) character or another separator character, Http.sys rejects the request and sends the following error message to the requestor: Bad Request (Invalid Header Name). Additionally, when you use lowercase HTTP verbs like "get," Http.sys rejects the request and sends the following error message to the requestor: "Bad Request (Invalid Verb)".

CAUSE

This problem occurs because HTTP specifications state that HTTP requests that contain separator characters in the header are not valid. The HTTP specifications also state that HTTP verbs are case-sensitive.
