Internet Explorer Browser and Email Check - Taking Online Security Seriously

Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser is the most popular browser used by Web surfers. It's no wonder, that online security is a big issue, especially for PC users.

Is your Yahoo email, Hotmail email, or other browser-based email messaging safe? Or, is your email client software, such as Outlook Express and Eudora safe?

Good news is, though... if you take the necessary steps in securing your browser and email software, you will at least give hackers a discouraging headache if they ever tried to breach your computer security.

Internet Explorer Update - Keeping Your Browser Healthy

Are you one of those who forget to check your Internet Explorer update page?

To manually check for updates to Windows (and Internet Explorer browser), either...

  • click Start -- Windows  Update, or

  • Start your browser (Internet Explorer) as you normally do to surf the Web. Then click Tools -- Windows Update.

This takes you to the Microsoft Windows update site.

Alternatively, you can set your browser to check for updates automatically whenever you go on the Web.

Set auto update by launching your Internet Explorer browser. Click Tools -- Internet Options to load the IE Options dialog.

Browser and Email Checkup Options

In addition to updating your browser and email software, you should backup your email, manage your temporary internet file storage, and practice safe browsing habits.

With your Internet Explorer browser or other Web browser software secure, kids can safely browse the web and receive emails.
