| CLASSROOM TIP: Prevent your computer mouse balls from being lost by super-gluing the ball cover to mouse back. A good deterrent to keep your mice from being stolen is to safety-tie your mouse (and other) cables to the back of the desktop case. |

WINDOWS UPDATES |
||
| Your teacher laptops are set to automatically check for and download Windows updates. However, if you have a home computer that is not automatically set for updates, frequently check the Microsoft site for critical updates. One recent release is a particularly useful tool which removes malicious software. |

PHISHING ALERT! |
||
|
The new email trick is to convince good people into voluntarily giving the bad guys their credit card information. The process is called PHISHING (fishing) for information. I have seen the very convincing email from Ebay and PayPal asking to verify the email recipient’s credit card information. No one should ever give their credit card to an unknown company. Please be on the alert about this form of Identity Theft. If you receive an email asking for information please delete it.
