This is just a quick reminder that in view of the present holidays, when you make purchases online you MUST protect yourself as much as possible. Using a FireWall and anti-virus programs on your computer can help to prevent unauthorised access to information on your computer (reference: Antivirus Programs). Also ensure that you have spam suppressers installed and anti-adware software, both of which can contain dangerous viruses and codes.
It is also best to use payment processors instead of sending your Credit Card information over the internet everytime you make a transaction (reference: Online Payment Processors). This helps you to keep your number seucure and less likely to be hacked.
By all means, clear your browser cookies before you close your browser. In addition, clear your temporary internet files folder regulary. You can never be too careful.
