Navigation – Navigation is the second most dangerous internet activity .
It has more or less the same dangers as emails the user’s computer can get
viruses if he does not run an antivirus before opening downloaded file , an the
user can be lured into phishing website if he does not type personally the
bank’s address in the web browser . Moreover , the computer can get viruses
even when simply visiting some website , and therefore two good suggestions are
to avoid visiting strange or untrustworthy website and to keep internet
Explorer and windows operating system always up to date .
Attacks from outside – Any computer attached to the internet ,
either directly through a modem or indirectly inside a LAN , is subject to
attacks from the outside WAN . The typical attack consists in external
computers trying to gain access to the computer using operating system knows
problems or hoping that the user is currently best defense is keeping the
computer’s program always up-to-date , especially the operating system and
communication programs .
