Britain’s Telegraph recently reported a study that concluded that 1 in 4 children have received inappropriate material, including pornography, via email. In response to similar studies, the UK Government has instituted a school program for children called “Click Clever, Click Safe.” Though we don’t have a nationwide program like “Click Clever, Click Safe” in the US, it may be even more important for parents to learn about how to keep their kids safe (and innocent) online.

There are several free and paid browsers and email clients for kids available on the Web, which could cut down the chances of your child receiving a NSFK (Not Safe for Kids) email. Here’s a lowdown on a few of them:

PikLuk - A web browser AND an email client.
Pros: White list option.
Cons: Only for PC. Paid version costs $20 a year.

KidMail - An email service your child can access from any email provider that has POP/SMTP access (Gmail, Thunderbird, etc.). Quarantines emails to your child until you approve them.
Pros: KidMail sends an authentication message to unfamiliar email senders. Prevents NSFK spam.
Cons: Costs $29.95 a year. Time consuming; parents must approve all emails sent to their child.

There are dozens of computer repair companies out there. A simple Google search for “Boston computer repair” brings up 979,000 pages of results. If you’ve never needed computer repair services, how can you tell which company will efficiently fix your computer? And which company can you trust to not go through you private pictures and documents?

Start off by asking friends or family if they have used a computer repair services company in your area. Ask them if the problem was fixed. Then ask them how long it took, and ask how much they paid. If the answers you receive aren’t to your liking, go back to the Internet.

Just like restaurants and bars, service companies often rely on reviews posted by their customers on various websites. If you find a company that you think may be a good fit, Google them to see what others have said. Why? Without a bit of research, you could be putting your expensive computer and private files into the hands of someone like the technicians at Laptop Revival in London.

Hackers have turned to Twitter to spread malicious websites over the Internet, which could put your computer at risk for getting a virus.

Because Tweets are limited to 140 characters, many Twitter users convert their links to a shorter URL with the use of websites such as http://url4t.com/. This turns even the most universally recognized URL, Google.com, into the unrecognizable short link http://url4t.com/_5C. Hackers have taken advantage of this feature by creating Twitter accounts solely for the purpose of marketing malicious websites.

Before you click on a link within a Tweet, make sure you know that the account is legitimate. Better yet, avoid clicking short links from Twitter accounts that you do not follow. Also, use precaution when clicking on links within ReTweets — hackers often search for legitimate tweets and then ReTweet them with a different, malicious URL.

Naturally, the best underlying defense against computer viruses is installing (and frequently updating) a security system on your computer. Not all computer security software is created equal, so consider getting advice from someone you know about which to purchase. After years of virus removal experience, A+ Mobile PC Doctors has found that AVG Internet Security 9.0 outperforms all other brands of Internet security systems. If you find that your laptop has indeed contracted a virus, don’t hesitate to contact A+ Mobile PC Doctors, an experienced Boston computer repair company. Outside of Massachusetts, we are also offer national computer repair services for commercial and residential clients.
