Being able to access the Internet from different locations — the library, a computer lab at school, an Internet cafe — is a great convenience, but it can also pose a security risk to personal information. If you do access the Internet from a shared computer, here are a few things you need to remember.

1. Don't check the "remember my password" box. 
2. When you're done, make sure you log off completely by clicking the "log off" button before you walk away. 
3. If possible, clear the browser cache and history.
4. Never leave the computer unattended while you're logged in. 
5. Move all documents you've used to "Trash", and empty the recycle bin.
