Attachments, File Extensions Hacking
Hacking
File Extensions
The process of breaking into a computer or
network. One example is that of a Boston
teenager who hacked into the phone company?s
computer system and caused it to crash. This
type of offense is criminal, AND YOU will be
prosecuted!

• Explain the purpose of a file. For example,
  hello.doc - .doc is the file extension. It
  explains the file is a document.
• .exe is an executable file meaning it does
  something.
• SCR stands for script and .vbs stands for visual
  basic, which is a programming language.

Attachments

• Something is attached to the email. It can be a
  document, a picture, or a program.

Virus
A virus is a computer program, which operates by
piggybacking on other programs. Any time the
other program is run, the virus is activated and
able to do harm. Email addresses often replicate
themselves and send emails to anyone on your
address list.
What is it?

• Forwards with FW is in the subject line
• if the attachment has a suffix of .exe,
  .scr, or .vbs.

Warning signs
Get rid of it!
Hold down the shift key and press delete to
completely remove the email from the hard drive.
Use anti-Virus software! When you download an
attachment, save it to your computer first. This
way it can be run through your virus protection
software before being opened.

Worms Trojans
Worm
Trojans

• Programs that claim to do one thing, such as a
  game, but when run secretly do other things.
• Trojans can erase your hard drive for example,
  but they cannot replicate themselves.
• They have to be sent or copied by a user. One way
  to prevent getting Trojans or other harmful
  programs is to download only from well-know
  reputable sites.

• Viruses that spread through computer networks.
• They use the network to replicate from machine
  to machine.

Cyber Bullies
Bullies are most accepted in middle school. In
high school they typically only associate with
other bullies while in elementary, physical
dominance isnt as noticeable.
What is it?
A bully wants Power, Control, Domination,
Subjugation
For the bully, it is about power and the need
to feel in control, to win.
Bullying is NOT outgrown.
Bullies do not accept responsibility for their
behaviors.
Bullies have more aggressive instincts and do not
show remorse for actions.
Bullies tend to perceive slights other people
staring, talking, not respecting which they feel
justifies their aggression.
Bullies can be either girls or boys. Boys tend
to use physical domination while girls use gossip
and rumors.

Prevention Techniques

• Dont give out private information such as
  passwords, pins, name, address, phone number,
  school name, or family and friends names.
• Dont exchange pictures or give out e-mail
  address to people you meet on the Internet.
• Dont believe everything you see or read online.
  
• If someone does get angry or bullies ignore them
  - online bullies want a reaction just like real
  bullies.
• Dont send a message when you are angry.
• When something doesnt seem right, it probably
  isnt. Get out of the site, chat, etc.

If youre bullied
Tell someone. Dont open or read messages by
cyber bullies. Tell your Internet service
provider. Inform the local police. Tell your
school if it is school related. Dont erase the
messages. If bullied through chat or instant
messaging, the bully can often be blocked.

Personal Identifiers
NAME ? AGE ? PHONE NUMBER ? SOCIAL SECURITY
NUMBER ? ADDRESS ? SCHOOL ? FRIENDS NAMES ?
FAMILY NAMES

• Strangers on the Internet can get identify you
  in different ways.
• They may trick you into giving out information.
  You may not even realize what you have told them.
  
• Indirect information about your school,
  activities, etc, could lead them to knowing where
  you live.
• Choose your User ID carefully. A User ID is a
  nickname you select to identify you in email,

  identifiers, you cant be found.

False! Some information can be more personal then
you think. Information like when a specific
concert is happening in your town, your school
mascot, names of sports teams your play on, or
your sports jersey number can be pieced together
by predators to find you.

• Seeking out provocative user names.
• Starting out with an innocent IM.
