That's quite a difficult question to answer, it's hard to ever be fully safe on the internet with so many scams, hackings and whatnots going on. But there are a few things to help you keep safe on the internet.

  1. Don't share your password with anyone else.
  2. Double-check the URL (the address of the Web site) before hitting the Enter key. Make sure the spelling is right. This will help ensure you go to the site you want, and not some other place.
  3. If you receive unwanted, offensive, mean, threatening, or harassing e-mail, do not respond to it or if you're on a website report the person to site administrators.
  4. Remember: not everything you read on the Internet is true.
  5. Never give out your full name.
  6. Never give out your home address over the Internet.
  7. Don't open files or e-mail from someone you don't know. You don't know what might be inside-the files could contain a computer virus, so it's best to scan the file first.
  8. Never agree to meet someone you met on the Internet in person without truly knowing them. You should never meet someone you met online alone. If you do set up a meeting with an online friend, meet in a public place and go with your parent or friend.
  9. Remember that any information you share about yourself can be seen by anyone who is online.

Is it safe to download files from the internet?

It's only safe to download files from the internet if you KNOW that the source is trustworthy. If you are uncertain, then the answer is a definite NO. The files MIGHT be safe - but it's high risk if you don't know. Even from sources you THINK should be trustworthy there is still some residual risk if you mistype the URL or go to the site from an email link or if the site gets compromised.
