First you are going to need to make sure that you keep your computer updated. Microsoft and Apple regularly release updates to patch any problems that have been found with the operating system that could be attacked by hackers. You will also want to keep your web browser updated. internet Explorer is updated by Windows Update and Firefox and Chrome are updated automatically each time you run them. Next you will want to make sure that all of the browser plugins are updated. A browser plugin is a program that allows you to do things that your browser alone can't do. Some examples of browser plugins include Adobe Flash, Adobe Shockwave, Adobe Reader, Java and Microsoft Silverlight. It is becoming very common for cyber criminals to attack browser plugins. This is because generally people keep their computers updated and browsers are becoming easier to keep updated but not many people keep their browser plugins updated. It works with all browsers and they provide links for your out dated plugins so that you can update them. Last but certainly not least, YOU MUST HAVE SECURITY SOFTWARE ON YOUR COMPUTER.
