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!

“Reputable companies … or a web address that begins with https:// – that extra ‘s’ stands for secure.” I knew about the padlock and key symbol, but the https:// was new news to me.

I just looked at the world map for threats and was surprised to find that the US was only one step above the lowest threat level. I’ve always assumed we had a much higher level.

I learned “A constructive security approach is based on talking openly with children about the positive and negative aspects of the Internet and how to use it safely. We need to make it normal and easy for children to discuss their favorite web sites and whatever else they encounter on the web, including unpleasant or disturbing content.”

They have a great suggestion of having a second, separate account for anything you do online to avoid spam in your main email. Great advise for all of us who like to find deals, Qs, surveys, online!

I learned that if you do have problems with an online shop, normal consumer rights that apply at the store also apply on the products that you buy on the Internet.
