A simple method to browse and compare gift ideas, shopping via your favourite online store provides a more efficient method of researching the cheapest offers on the high street. <br />Shopping on the internet offers the distinct advantage that you can quickly and efficiently compare the prices of your chosen items, either by manually comparing prices on a selection of websites, or through price comparison services such as Kelkoo and Pricerunner. In a difficult economic climate, the ability to control your spending is, without doubt, a strong factor in the increasing popularity of online shopping. <br />Shopping on the internet is generally a very secure medium for today's busy shopper, however to ensure a positive shopping experience it is worth following the following guidelines for online shopping. <br />1) SSL Certificate <br />Always ensure that the website you are buying from carries an SSL certificate on pages where you are entering private information such credit card and billing information. 'SSL' stands for Secure Sockets Layer and is used to encrypt sensitive information transmitted over the internet. <br />Information transmitted via SSL cannot be read by unauthorised third parties, so your details cannot be deciphered even in the off-chance they are intercepted. To check whether the website you are buying from is using SSL (and every website taking credit card details should be) simply check the URL of your page for the https: and/or the secure padlock symbol at the foot of your browser window. <br />2) Internet Browser Updates <br />To ensure a safe internet shopping experience, and in general,<a href="http://jimmy-choo-bags.info" target="_blank" class="postlink">jimmy choo handbags</a>, it is important to make sure your internet browser is kept as up to date as possible. The latest browser updates are regularly released to address security bugs and vulnerabilities. Free to download and install, updating your browser is quick and easy, so there is no reason not to have the latest version of your browser installed. <br />3) Keep Your Operating System Up To Date <br />As with Internet Browsers, Operating Systems are also open to new vulnerabilities, so it is important to update your operating system for a secure online experience. This is of particular importance for Windows based operating systems, which are installed in most home computers/laptops, and as such are more likely to be targeted by malicious third parties seeking to manipulate security vulnerabilities. <br />Most modern operating systems provide automatic software updates. Alternatively, you can manually download the most recent updates for free via the internet. In either case, you should always make sure your operating system is up to date to ensure a secure web browsing environment. <br />4) Keep Your Anti-Virus Software Up-To-Date <br />Most people are aware of the importance of installing a good anti-virus suite, but it is worth re-emphasising this point. Viruses often arrive disguised of email attachments or website downloads, but they can also be unknowingly downloaded from malicious websites simply by browsing website. <br />There are a variety of excellent anti-virus packages available, both commercial and free, so ensuring against potential virus threats is as simple as finding the correct package for you and installing it. <br />You should also ensure your anti-virus suite is up-to-date by installing the most up-to-date virus definitions when they become available. Updated virus definitions contain code used to recognise new virus threats, so to make sure your device is adequately protected it is important to install these updates. Your anti-virus package normally complete this process automatically,<a href="http://chloe-bags.info" target="_blank" class="postlink">chloe purses</a>, and Windows based operating systems will alert you if your virus protection is not up-to-date. <br />5) Protection Against Malware/Adware/Spyware <br />In addition to threats from viruses, there are other forms of malicious software which can threaten the security of internet users. Spyware and Adware usually install themselves on your computer simply by visiting an unsavoury website. At worst, this type of software can install security threats such as keylogger software, which can log the keypresses on a compromised machine, and can be used to obtain sensitive information such as credit card numbers. <br />There are a number of very good free software packages which prevent malicious software such as Spyware/Adware/Malware from running on your machine, so it is a wise move to install such a package on your device. <br />6) Install Firewall Software on your Computer <br />A Firewall is a piece of software which prevents access to your computer by an unauthorised user or software program. Without a Firewall, your computer could be vulnerable to being hacked and malicious software such as trojans, worms and viruses, so it is important to make sure you have one installed. Again, there are a number of excellent Firewall programs available for free download. Modern Windows operating systems also include a Firewall as standard, so make sure this is configured properly on your machine. <br />7) Don't Fall For Phishing <br />'Phishing' is a relatively well-known security issue whereby a malicious user/organisation can gain access to sensitive information such as usernames/passwords/credit card details by utilising a fake website and/or email. <br />Typically, a user may receive an email,<a href="http://jimmy-choo-bags.info" target="_blank" class="postlink">jimmy choo bags</a>, e.g. from a reputable bank, requesting that the recipient of the email update their details online. The phishing email usually contains a link to a illegitimate website created to collect your details for fraudulent purposes. Fake phishing websites are often near-identical the original website they are based upon, and recipients of phishing emails are often duped into entering their sensitive information to unscrupulous fraudsters. <br />Modern Internet Browsers have installed anti-phishing tools which advise users of potential phishing websites. Common sense also plays an important role, as banking websites will never email clients requesting full passwords or usernames. <br />By adhering to these top 7 tips for safe shopping online, you can ensure your shopping experience is as secure as possible, whilst making significant savings in the process.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="http://picsrv.fora.pl/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
