Well, back from vacation and ready to get at it again.
Enclosed phot of me eating home made Key Lime pie
Made especially by our hostess Audrey Moir - - The Best !


Here are a couple key items for you to work on.


REMEMBER YOUR PASSWORDS


This one is about as important as it gets (other than a backup).
Keep track of your passwords ! ! !
Here is one of the easiest ways. Use your word processor or notepad.
Go to Start - Programs - Accessories - Notepad
and start your List: should look something like this


SERVICE
USERNAME PASSWORD






FREEWWWEB
yourname yourpassword


HOTMAIL
login password


YAHOO
signin pass




when complete do FILE - SAVE AS - and name it password


don't forget to print it out to save a hard copy for yourself


=====================================================


NEXT?


What are these things called cookies and how do I get rid of them?


Cookies are files that internet pages use to save their settings on your


machine. They keep track of where you have been on a site so they can


lead you to other places you might want to go. They also save any special


settings like home page layouts and stock listings of what you want to keep.


These files are extremely small and are not significant as far as space
usage.


If you DO delete them many of your favorite pages will go back to default
values


and locking them out will actually keep you from getting into many pages
again.


Although there may be somebody interested in where you've been and want to


pry into your cookies, oh well Its better to share your cookies than to not
have


any at all.


========================================================
LASTLY:


I want to let everybody know there must be a problem with the Postal
Service.


As I sign everybody up for Freewwweb I always suggest that if anybody wants


to keep spending their access money each month "just mail me their internet


access savings " but I haven't gotta check yet. hehehehehe


HAPPY SAVINGS! ! ! !
