Online Safety and Privacy Education

I accidentally stumbled upone an OUTSTANDING Microsoft web site about online safety and privacy at http://www.microsoft.com/protect/ .  It includes links to comprehensive information about:
  • Protecting your family with tips on how child safety, certain products (Windows Live, Xbox, Zune, Windows Media Center), etc
  •  Protecting youself (passwords, phishing and email scams, spam, & shopping)
  • Protecting your computer (security updates, free antivirus & antispyware security software, malware removal, etc)
  • Online safety community questions and answers
The Microsoft Fraud Prevention web site is also excellent.  This web site is a one-page listing of links to information about passwords, phishing and email scams, spam, and oline shopping.  It is located at http://www.microsoft.com/protect/fraud/default.aspx
