Get thee behind a firewall. Windows XP SP2 enables a firewall by default. Zone Alarm (www.zonealarm.com) is free. Hardware routers with built-in firewalls cost less than $100. There is no excuse for not protecting your information (and that of your clients) with a firewall.

Outlook 2003 offers the option of converting all incoming e-mail to plain ASCII text.

Internet security can be tested and validated through the following: Check your anti-virus software. Your test here is as easy as knowing if you have anti-virus software, because if you do, it means your Internet security is one step safer.
