Re: Protection from fraud
This is not really a legal question - it's a
technology question - but I will attempt to answer
it, at least partially.
Don't leave your computer on while you are not in
front of it. (Not a guarantee)
Use something like Zone Alarm to protect your computer
from virus and instrusion. (Not a guarantee)
Don't keep your credit card or banking information
on your computer. (Probably a guarantee it won't be
found there by a hacker.)
Don't use your credit card or bank account to pay
for anything online.
