Protecting Personal Data On The Internet

You should always set up your web browser using other than your real name and real e-mail address.  Be careful to clean out your cookies file. These can let others know what web sites you visited and how long you were on there and what information you viewed.  Don't accept every 'friend' request.  If you don't recognize the person, don't 'friend' them.  Also, don't give out personal information in exchange for money or some prize.  Often these are just marketing scams and before you know it, hundreds of sites may have your information.
