Cyberworld

Hey all you internet lovers. Have you ever been cyber bullied? No? Well I have. It all started one day when I got back from a 3 day vacation at a lake when it all went down. I walk into the door and go to boot up my computer. I logged onto my Youtube account and scrolled down to see if I had any messages and didn't. But looky here! I look to the left of the page and see that someone has left me and unpleasant description of my in my "all about me" column. Someone hacked onto my page. I was really angry and right when found out who it was, I felt like I was hit in the gut! My best friends! wow that was some treat, more like a kick in the face. Note to viewer: Never leave a friends house without double checking that you have logged COMPLETELY out of a site before someone does something to you!

    Logging out COMPLETELY isn't enough most of the time. After you have logged out and closed the web browser, go into Internet Options and delete all the cookies, temporary internet files, history, form data and passwords from memory. This will ensure no one will be able to use your passwords or username. I never use passwords that others would know or that can be cracked. I have a method of devising passwords that are virtually un-breakable. I also ensure that nobody has access to my computers except for myself. I also decline offers to "remember you" or "remember your password" or "log you in automatically". This way I ensure nobody can use any of my accounts or can impersonate me.

    If I were you, I would divorce myself from these so called "friends" as soon as possible. When they changed your profile they may have viewed it as a practical joke or being funny, but, they never considered the harm their "joke" could cause. You don't need so called "friends" who maliciously access and change any of your user accounts or information. You may also tell them how angry and disappointed in them you are and how much their malicious joke hurt. After that just write them off and don’t talk to them anymore, even if they try to contact you. You don’t need “friends” who are malicious or cruel.
