Guard your computer privacy
Recently, I heard about hackers spreading computer viruses through chat software, such as ICQ or MSN Messenger.
Some hackers may just be playing tricks on other computer users, perhaps just for fun. But actually they are bringing trouble to others.
Meanwhile, other hackers use their computer knowledge to create and release Trojans, to steal people's credit card numbers, e-mail accounts, or even files in their computers.
Not so long ago, Facebook was attacked by hackers, who sent messages inviting people to provide personal information on fake websites. Their Facebook accounts were hijacked and used to send spam to friends.
It is essential we protect our privacy by frequently changing our passwords and carrying out complete scans for computer viruses. If somebody sends you a mysterious message, do not open it.
