How Do I Stop Others From Tracking My Online Activity?
This article will help you to learn things that will help you make sure no one tracks your online activity.
Protecting Passwords:
------------------------------
Lets start with password protection.Can anyone actually track what you are typing?Yes is the answer.If you weren't aware of this then you might not also be familiar with key loggers[wiki].So first of all you need to make sure no keyloggers are spying you.Anti-virus softwares considers key loggers as viruses since they usually hide themselves and run at the background similar to viruses.So scanning your system using your anti-virus software will do the job.But if you don't want to take chances get some free spy-ware scanning and removal software like Windows defender and scan your system using them.If you don't use windows then SpyCatcher Express might help you.
Deleting Your Tracks:
------------------------------
You can do it manually if you understand the browser you are using really well.This process involves setting 'Days to Keep History Of You Browsing Activity" to "0" days,Cleaning up your cache and cookies and clearing up auto-fill forms.There are also free softwares which help you automate the process.The best free-ware you can find is IE Privacy Keeper.
Protecting Yourself From Intruders:
-----------------------------------------
Anyone on your network can track your activities if your system is left unprotected for hijack.This can be solved by activating the inbuilt firewall of your OS.If your OS doesn't have inbuilt firewall then get a free firewall like Zone Alarm.It will definitely block intrusions from outside and any communication between any malicious software installed on your system to its target.

How to handle and get rid of stage fright and fear of public speaking?
Many people pass off even at the thought of going into the stage and facing an audience while at the same time they envy at those who handle the audience like cheese.Its not that those who are capable of such acts are born with such talents.The difference is that they have learnt to tackle the problem well.I am not going to give some advices from an experts point of view,but would rather like to share things that have worked for me in the past.
1.Getting on the stage is the hardest part.When you are in such a situation just walk in like you really don't know what stage fear is.This is a symbol of confidence and this puts you in the driver's seat and what you have is receptive audience waiting for its confident speaker or performer to deliver.
2.When you are performing some artistic talents like singing,dancing or such stuff you really need to concentrate on that.The best thing to do is that much before your performance sit alone and think from audience's point of view,Think as if you were one among the audience.An audience will always allow you to cast spell on them and would never want to see someone scre up on stage.Think this and you will definitely concentrate on your performance.
3.Another way to boost up some confidence is to watch someone performing in a manner what you may call magnificient.Get hold of some videos of legends of your field and watch them while practicing for the big day.Having someone great as motivation will ease the pressure on you.
4.Another way is to calculate the worst thing that could happen and just talk about it alone and leave it completely.When you have faced your fears the rest is easy.
5.Stay away from demotivating people no matter how close they are.Keep your mp3 player and headphone with you.Trust me this is the best way to avoid any conversation and they won't feel bad about it.
I hope these things work for you.Stay happy.Stay motivated.

'Keep Your Privacy' Tip:Disable Auto Save Of Google Talk Chats,Conversations In Gmail
A lot of gmail accounts have being hacked recently,however we can have a breather as no new virus outbreak is reported.Mostly these accounts are hacked through social engineering.Most people use easily guessable words as their passwords like their girlfriend's/boyfriend's name,pet's name,phone number etc.. which can easily be tracked by anyone who knows the person well and can play pranks by hacking into their mailboxes and doing crazy stuff.If you use Gtalk(Google talk) for private conversation this is certainly not desirable.The fact is that autosave of Gtalk chats is set on by default and unless you turn it off manually your conversations are saved by Gmail.
So just in case your Gmail account gets hacked,the hacker can clearly go through your private conversation.So the best thing to do is to turn the auto save feature.
This is how you do it.
>>Log into Gmail.
>>Click on Settings on the right top corner.
>>On "Chat History" choose Don't save chat history in my Gmail account and save.
Stay safe and don't get phished.
