Theft of Personal Information
If you use the Internet for online banking, social networking or other services, you may risk a theft to your personal information such as name, address, credit card number etc. Unscrupulous people can access this information through unsecured connections or by planting software and then use your personal details for their benefit. Needless to say, this may land you in serious trouble.
Spamming
Spamming refers to sending unwanted e-mails in bulk, which provide no purpose and needlessly obstruct the entire system. Such illegal activities can be very frustrating for you as it makes your Internet slower and less reliable.
Virus Threat
Internet users are often plagued by virus attacks on their systems. Virus programs are inconspicuous and may get activated if you click a seemingly harmless link. Computers connected to Internet are very prone to targeted virus attacks and may end up crashing.
Pornography
Pornography is perhaps the biggest disadvantage of Internet. Internet allows you to access and download millions of pornographic photos, videos and other X-rated stuff. Such unrestricted access to porn can be detrimental for children and teenagers. It can even play a havoc in marital and social lives of adults.
Social Disconnect
Thanks to Internet, people now only meet on social networks. More and more people are getting engulfed in virtual world and drifting apart from their friends and family. Even children prefer to play online games rather than going out and mingling with other kids. This may hamper a healthy social development in children.
Thus, Internet has the potential to make your life simple and convenient, as well as wreak havoc in your life. Its influence is mostly dictated by the choices you make while you are online. With clever use, you can manage to harness its unlimited potential.
What is the difference of Internet and internet?
- Internet with a capital "I" refers to the entire Internet (meaning the biggest collection of networks on the planet) .
- Internet with a lowercase "i" refers to any group of networks that are connected together. Internet with a lowercase "i" can also be used as an adjective to refer to things related to the Internet (uppcase "I" ) or a private network - internet with a lowercase "i".
- Intranet refers to a single inter-connected network within one organization that uses HTTP/Web technologies for the sharing of information internally. In other words you could string together intranets to make your own private internet. You could then conceivably connect your internet to the Internet.
mbps is greater than kbps....
Not so.
The prefix of "m" means "mili-" (1/1,000), for example "mm", "mg", "mW", "ml" etc. The prefix of "k" means "kilo-" (1,000 multiple), for example "km", "kg", "kW", "kV" etc.
Then a "mili-bit-per-second" is 1,000,000 times less than "kilo-bit-per-second", in other words mbps ie less than kbps. The question probably should be "Is Mbps greater than kbps?". If so, the prefix of "M" means "mega-" (1,000,000 multiple) and Mbps is greater than kbps.

Name ten disadvantage of using computer?
Well, it depends on how one uses the computer.
Disadvantages
-------------------
1. Affects health (eye sight, strain in joints and muscles, and if junk foods are taken along with the use of computers as one sees in movies, then its bad luck, sleeping less)
2. Less socializing skills (not just getting into a social networking website and adding a million friends, or adding an RSS feed to your life via twitter).
3. Abuse
This is a big issue dude. The value of humans are getting reduced. The moral values are getting reduced and affected adversely.
4. Reduces the mental capabilities, the memory etc of human if one uses organizers and various others stuffs like to-do list etc.
5. Addiction to unwanted stuffs like time killing games leads to less productivity and wastage of time
6. Wastage of money. (If no control is put into the use of online shopping then one shall go bankrupt sooner)
7. Less privacy. (with cloud computing. See what Richard Stallman said: http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2008/sep/29/cloud.computing.richard.stallman)
8. More frauds (I hate the Nigerians)
9. Not reliable (one cannot trust the computer (electronic) systems. Some time they stop working at a critical moment, I gets screwed up like that. Its no way perfect.)
10. Electronic waste (polluting the mother earth with the electronic wastes)

When was the World Wide Web first introduced?
I'm not sure exactly how the web was created, but you might want to try going to www.greatachievements.org for some help. I hope that helps!
AnswerThe Internet itself began in the 1960's as a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency development intended to allow universities and research facilities to communicate and share data. Email, newsgroups, and file transfers were it's primary uses. In 1990, hypertext was developed for use on the Internet, as well as the first browser, with the first web page being published in December of that year. So that would technically mark the beginning of the WWW, but at that time use of the Internet was still restricted to the US government, universities, and other research facilities. In April of 1993, the Internet was released for public/commercial use.Answer
The internet was available prior to 1993 - I used it myself in1975 (at 300 baud over an accoustic coupling - slow!), but you had to use ftp and other 'technical' commands to do stuff. The hypertext protocol developed at Cern allowed simple interaction and linking to take place. Incidently, the DARPA project was more to allow the military to keep computers talking via multiple network paths for resilience in time of war, rather than to facilitate university research collaboration.

Describe the basic operation of the Internet?
The Internet is basically a hierarchy that allows any Internet connected device in one geographic location, talk to another Internet connected device in another geographic location. The way that the information is transmitted varies greatly, and in some countries, wireless ham radios are even used to transmit email.
When you log into a web site, you actually send a command to a distant server telling it to download a page of data to your PC. Your web browser packages that command into a packet labeled with the address of the server storing the page that you want. Your PC sends the packet to your modem (or terminal adapter), which transmits it across your telephone or other connection to your Internet Service Provider or ISP.
The ISP actually operates as a message forwarder. At the ISP, your message gets combined with those from other PCs and sent through a higher speed connection (at least you should hope it is a high speed connection) to yet another concentrator that eventually sends your packet to one of five regional centers (located in New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Maryland). There the major Internet carriers exchange signals, routing the packets from your modem to the carrier that haul them to their destination based on their Internet address.
One of the weaknesses of today's Internet is its addressing. All of the Internet addresses are global. From the address itself, neither you nor a computer can tell where that address is or, more importantly, how to connect to it. The routers in the Internet regional centers maintain tables to help quickly send packets to the proper address. Without such guidance, packets wander throughout the world looking for the right address. Worse, the current Internet naming convention which assigns 32-bit addresses, doesn't have the breadth necessary to accommodate all future applications of the Internet. Some experts believe that the Internet will simply run out of available addresses sometime around the turn of the century-whether the shortfall occurs before or after the millennium depends on how pessimistic an expert you ask.
Internet addresses are separate and distinct from the domain names used as Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) through which you specify Web pages. The domain names give you a handle with a natural-language look. Internet addresses are, like everything in computing, binary codes.
Even domain names are running short. Finding a clever and meaningful name for a web site is a challenge that's ever increasing. Believing that one of the problems in the shortage of URLs has been the relatively few suffixes available, one of the coordinating agencies for Internet names, the International Ad Hoc Committee, proposed seven additional suffixes in addition to the six already in use in the U.S. and the national suffixes used around the world (.US for United States, .CA for Canada, and so on).

Msn is safe because your child or yourself can only add contacts that they want to add, also if anybody is being verry nasty to your child if your child is on you can block the contact from seeing or contacting your child. If somebody is abusing you or your child you can report them to the MSN team.
Try it out and make sure you have the right privacy settings. Many children who use msn are young, and it has helped them to stay in touch with others. Only add people you know, and delete and block someone if they are mean to you! MsN is great but be safe!
Also, do not click on any links that may be sent to you, even if the program states they are from 'friends'. They are potentially viruses, which one does not need!
