3) Review your Browser settings , disable active x and auto installation.

4) Hover over links to see where they link to. Be suspicous of websites that link to ip addresses and not by name. Is the domain extension from the country you expected ? e.g. .com or .info or .biz

5) Configure you browser to ask you for permission to set temporary cookie data on your computer.

6) Make sure your browser is upto date. A growing voice of people are saying that FireFox is a less vulnerable browser due to the openess and speed of security and patching. You can get Firefox here:

7) In internet cafes and shared computers minimise your typing. If possible take a file on usb or flash key which contains your user names and passwords.

This avoids you having to key them in and reducing the chances of key logging theft.

8) Make sure you have windows firewall turned on. Whilst it can cause issues initially, it does offer fairly good protection for privacy.

9) Never use password remembering programs or keep them in plain text files on your pc. If you really need to store password data you should use PGP encryption on the files.

10) Check your pc automatically for spyware, viruses and more with programs like Spybot S+D , Adaware and Norton Anti Virus.
