Join me every week for Win-It Wednesday. I’ll be posting 24-hour giveaways at 8 a.m., 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. ET to give you plenty of chances to win!
With school back in session, more kids will be online than ever before doing homework, looking up information and playing educational games in addition to the hours spent on Facebook and emailing and instant messaging friends they would normally do. Keeping them safe as they browse is important, so you don’t have to worry about what websites they’re clicking through to and you can protect your computer as well from viruses and other internet threats.
F-Secure’s Internet Security 2011 features Browsing Protection to keep viruses, worms and spyware at bay, not allowing your children to click through to those sites. There are also advanced Parental Controls so that you can block sites with inappropriate content and keep your kids safe.
One lucky Deal Seeking Mom winner will win a Sony Vaio 10″ Netbook and 1-year of F-Secure’s Internet Security 2011!

I learned that you should set up a new e-mail account that you can use during the holiday for keeping contact with family and friends. I never thought of this.

Did you know they have a world map that shows the threat activity in your area of the world. Check it out…really interesting. Alabama seems to be higher today than the rest of the US.

Spend a couple of days without checking e-mail or emptying your junk mail folder, and you often return to an inbox bulging with irritating spam messages.

I thought a good idea on the F-Secure website was to set up a temporary email address to do your travel planning. It keeps your home email safe and keeps you off spam lists.

If you are using a mobile phone abroad, keep in mind that the cost for calls and surfing the net is probably much more expensive than at home
