When you purchase most home appliances, they come with an owner’s manual.  
The owner’s manual is the bible of information for that appliance. It tells you  
what each button does and how to set up and configure your new appliance to  
get it ready for operation. The owner’s manual also includes the actual steps to  
operate the appliance, and it often contains information on how and where to  
obtain service and parts, basic troubleshooting tips, and precautions you should  
be aware of before using the appliance.

This is true for VCRs, microwaves, toasters, and vacuum cleaners. All these  
appliances are commonly found in an average home, and each has an assigned  
task. When you buy these items you buy them with their specific tasks in mind,  
and the owner’s manual provides all the information you need to accomplish  
the goal.

Most home users treat their personal computers as an appliance as well. For  
some users, the PC is a fancy calculator that lets them track and manage their  
finances. For others, it’s a means of communication that lets them send e-mail  
to their friends and family. For others, it’s a high-end game console that lets  
them play the latest action games. The list goes on and on. The bottom line is  
that the computer is an “appliance” that has a variety of functions, and it can be  
different things to different people—sometimes even different things to the  
same person—depending on what the user wants the computer to do at that  
moment. continue reading inside…

**Organization of This Tutorial:**

This book is divided into four main sections:

■ The “Bare Essentials” section provides information about the security  
concerns that should be addressed immediately. The computer should  
not be connected to another computer or to the Internet until these  
areas are taken care of. If you follow the advice in this section you can  
connect to the Internet with a relative sense of security.  
■ The section titled “More Essential Security” goes deeper into different  
security technologies and how to use the computer for e-mail or Web  
surfing and other activities securely.  
■ The “Testing and Maintenance” section describes some ways you can  
test how secure your computer or network is and the different areas  
you need to monitor and update to maintain your security.  
■ The “Security Resources” section provides reference material as well as  
a short primer on the basic concepts of computer networking and the  
Internet for the readers who want to dig a little deeper.
