ICQ-security

First of all it is necessary to observe elementary care at use of ICQ UIN.

Key rules of ICQ-security:

1. To not put the simple password.

In no event it is impossible to put passwords more shortly 4 symbols, simple passwords of a kind 123456, and also the passwords having semantic value: password, icqpass, myuin, masha, windows etc. the Password should be difficult enough to exclude an opportunity of its selection and thus such that you could recollect it and in couple of years.

2. To not keep the password in the ICQ-client and to not use official clients is more younger ICQ Lite.

The most popular mistake. Here there is one very much an important point: some ICQ-clients (for example, all official clients of versions are more younger ICQ Lite) physically in any case keep the password even if a tick "To keep the password" you did not put. To check up it it is possible with special tool (the program only shows passwords and anything anywhere does not send).

To thicket of others to us people which any year used, for example, ICQ 2003а, absolutely sure that the password they did not keep (you see an artful tick they never put). And in once they catch to itself on a computer of the troyan horse which has on the spot got the "not kept" password and has sent its malefactors.

3. To not click under any links, sent to you through ICQ or e-mail with unfamiliar or unfamiliar people.

This one of key rules of safe work in the Network, but for some reason frequently seems to some people, that their ICQ-familiar with which they whole two days interestingly communicate, can not send them the link to a virus (or the page infected with a virus). People, be vigilant!

4. To not use ICQ UIN in internet-cafe, clubs etc. institutions.

In any local network having an internet the program which catches all passwords from ICQ can be established. It can be as legally established program, which results of work nobody will use with the purpose to steal your UIN, and the Grecian horse caught by the inexperienced manager.
