Main article here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/thereporters/rorycellanjones/2010/02/government_advice_browse_safel.html Rory Cellan-Jones | 08:46 UK time, Tuesday, 9 February 2010 Today is Safer Internet Day and in the UK, the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre (Ceop) is promoting two ideas to make the web more secure for children. The first is an animated film aimed at helping children aged five to seven to stay safe - Ceop says eight in 10 of them now use the internet. The second is a joint initiative with Microsoft. The software giant has produced a special Ceop-flavoured version of its web browser Internet Explorer 8 which will give parents and children easy access to advice and information. Microsoft came to the government body with the idea and the browser will be promoted on the Ceop site and as an option when you download IE8 in the UK. -- Regards, John Durham <http://modecideas.com/contact.html?sig> ICQ number 571215671 Fax/Phone 64 4 5286786 PC-HELPERS list subscribe/unsub at http://modecideas.com/discuss.htm?sig Blog http://pc-tech-upper-hutt.blogspot.com/ Get a copy of my novel entitled "Return" at http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=1382737 Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied. -- -------list-services-below----------- Regards, John Durham (list moderator) <http://modecideas.com/contact.html?sig> Freelists login at //www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/lsg2.cgi List archives at //www.freelists.org/archives/pchelpers PC-HELPERS list subscribe/unsub at http://modecideas.com/discuss.htm?sig Latest news live feeds at http://modecideas.com/indexhomenews.htm?sig Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
