10 more ways to commit malpractice with your computer
Article Abstract:
New technologies mean that users must learn new ways of protecting information. When sending e-mail, users should always check the list of those copied on the original message, instead of replying indiscriminately to the entire list. Some programs allow users to set the Reply button so that messages return only to the sender. A direct Internet connection will speed the sending and receiving of e-mail messages, but it poses a significant hazard unless a firewall is in place to prevent unauthorized access. Users should keep installation disks and manuals for all new programs, in case configuration problems force them to re-install the program. Tape backups should be checked routinely to ensure that the tape drive is working. Users should employ caution when trying to remove Windows programs, since new Windows programs affect many areas of the hard drive. Tips for maintaining Internet privacy, protecting notebook computers and preserving data are also included.
