- Create a password that is more difficult for someone to guess. (Use a combination of numbers and letters.) Never reveal your password to anyone. If you have given it out, change it immediately!
- Do not open an e-mail attachment from someone unknown to you. Computer viruses are often spread as e-mail attachments.
