It's that time again! Time for me to give you a few tips on keeping your internet life safe, and hack-free.





  • Don't use the same password on all the sites that you use! If you use windows, KeePass is a good application for keeping all of your passwords in one place (and locked with a master password!) so that you don't forget them. If you are using a mac, you can use the Keychain which comes with your mac (it's in applications/utilities) or 1Password is what I personally use ;).

  • Make sure that your e-mail password is different than any password you use on a site! If someone gets into your e-mail, they can use the 'lost password' functions on sites to get into any site that you play.

  • It's a good idea to change your password monthly (or more often than that!).





I know that it's a hassle changing passwords and trying to remember them, which is why I linked to software that can help with that (or you can use the Keychain that comes with your mac!). Really, it's worth it to not log into your favorite sites one day to see that everything has been taken.
