               Head of the Class….  One of the most important aspects of using a browser securely is to prac-
                   tice safe surfing habits. Common sense should determine what users do,
                   both online and off. Visiting Web sites of questionable design is the vir-
                   tual equivalent of putting yourself in harm’s way in a dark alley, but
                   Internet users do it all the time. Here are some guidelines that should be
                   followed to ensure safe surfing:
                         ■ Download software only from original vendor Web sites.
                         ■ Always attempt to verify the origin or ownership of a Web site
                            before downloading materials from it.
                         ■ Never assume anything presented online is 100 percent
                            accurate.

                                                                                        Continued
