With the holiday season approaching quickly, this informative presentation included a few smart e-shopping tips that can help minimize your troubles and ensure that you have a good online shopping experience - especially around the holidays. The broadcast also included such topics as online shopping transactions and the need to secure your private information online; understanding how to properly check your security settings on the new computer you just received as a gift; and making sure that free time for kids on holiday break doesn't become free time for mischievous making in cyber space!
