The rest of the information and links are spread across the rest of the page but everything is set out in as table to keep things even and neat.

Internet banking security
Internet banking security Subject: Name: Form: Due date: Teacher: Online banking is used for making transactions & payments over the Internet through a bank or credit union. This allows customers to do their banking outside of bank hours and from anywhere in the world, as long as there is internet access. Most major banks provide an internet banking service and there are also some internet only banking companies who offer all their services online and do not have high street branches. In most cases a web browser is utilized and any normal internet connection is suitable. No special software or hardware is usually needed though many exist. With all the major developments in internet security such as the establishment of encryption, secure passwords and tokens, I firmly believe that it is wise to conduct business and personal banking activities though the internet, infact I would recommend it as you are more likely to be mugged in the street then to loose your money though internet hackers. Protection through single password, as is the case in most secure Internet shopping sites, including eBay, is not considered secure enough for online banking in some countries. Online banking sites are very secure which means that the traffic of all information, including the password, is encrypted, making it extremely hard for a person to get the information after it is sent.
Regulation of the Internet
Regulation of the Internet Child pornography, hackers reading how to hack into your web site or personal computer and children reading explicit details in the Starr Report; these are all examples of harmful information available on the Internet that should be regulated by the government. Government should regulate information on the Internet. Obscene and harmful material on the Internet, such as child pornography should be obliterated. Other questionable material, such as the Starr Report, should be published on the Internet, but not within the reach of children. Hacking is a very controversial subject. Most aspects of hacking correspond to doing harm upon other people's computers. There is material available on the Internet regarding the "how-to's" of hacking. These aspects of hacking should be extracted from the Internet. Now, we can easily say these things such as "child pornography, hacking, and objectionable material on the Internet are bad and should be taken off." This is the easy way out. We have to realize that the Internet is an extremely complicated network of computers worldwide and that we can't just look around and find these "bad things" and get rid of them. We also need to realize that the problem doesn't just exist inside the United States. Sure, we can bust all the host computers containing these things in the United States, but the Internet is a worldwide

Evaluation of my ICT Database, Spreadsheet and Newsletter
Josh MckeithFinal Evaluation 05/01/2012 Health and Safety I followed the school rules, and didn’t bring any food/drink into any computer rooms that could be damaging the electrical appliances if any beverages split on it. I didn’t bring my bag or coat into the classroom to reduce chance of someone tripping over, and I made sure that all wires were safely under my desk so that no-one could trip over them. When it was sunny and I was sat facing a computer I made sure that the blinds were closed so that I didn’t get a headache. When I had a double lesson we had a 5minute break between the 2 periods. This was to reduce chances of getting a headache, poor circulation or even backache. I adjusted my chair’s height so that my eyes were at the same level as the screen to reduce eye strain. I watched out for any trailing cables from the mouse or headphones and I used wrist rests to prevent RSI. Security I made sure that I never told anyone my password, or that I didn’t write it down so that no one could alter my work in any way, or delete it. I had no internet access so no viruses could be downloaded. I saved my work regularly just in case of a power cut, or if I knocked the wires, or if some other thing happened. My work was regularly backed up, every night, and saved on an external hard-drive. I followed safe, healthy and secure working times at all times. I can

Report: Creating My Website Choice of Topic I chose to create a website for Apple because I am familiar with their products. I got most of my information from background knowledge of the company. I also believe that they are widely known so the audience would recognize the subject. Choice of Software Application I used Dreamweaver MX to create my website. This application is recognised as a good package for website design and is widely available for home and commercial use. It is easy to use for both home consumers and business users, and it enables the user to include advanced features such as navigation flash buttons, rollover images and form text which are all essential for website production. I have at least one of all of these on my website for presentational purposes. Methods Used to Create Each Slide First of all I set up a new folder in my user area and created 6 new .htm files. All of the websites are in the standard format, .htm. The title for the home page is Apple and for sub-pages I have used appropriate titles for each website, instead of page1and page2. I also created a folder where I could save all the images to be used on my site, so they could easily be navigated to and kept. Here is a screenshot of my folders to make it easier to visualize: Then I opened Dreamweaver and in design layout I added a table to my home page by clicking Insert and Table as
