Protect your children from dangers that lurk on the Internet. Learn to identify the real threats--be they pedophiles, cyber-stalkers, hackers, spyware, viruses, or adware. This book is a practical how-to guide for WinXP users and doesn't require any special technical knowledge.
This isn't a hand-wringing account of the dangers, it is a practical resource that focuses on the tools that can be used to for access control. The internet and it's related services (the web, email, newsgroups etc) involves two-way traffic. In order to provide protection it's necessary to exercise control over who can send material to your computer and control over where a child-user can go. Dangers are discussed in a calm and factual manner, and examines ways of risk reduction.
The author explains how things work; he provides the non-technical parent and interested reader, with an insight that should give them confidence in dealing with protecting the youth from internet-related dangers. The book is in parts that discuss a specific issue; spam, viruses, spyware and adware, and pop-ups.
This book is an exceptional good reference and resource that deserves a place in any library. A book that should be brought to the attention of parents by schools and community organisations.
