A word of caution to CollegeCandy readers: there is a glitch in the Internet Explorer web browser that may leave you vulnerable to hackers trying to steal your passwords.
If you’re using the browser now, exit the program and switch to a different one (such as Firefox, Safari, Chrome, or Opera).
The good news is that engineers at Microsoft (which owns IE) are working to resolve the error, which makes it easy for computer hackers to steal your passwords and gain access to your personal information. In the meantime, play it safe and don’t use Internet Explorer for using email, accessing bank statements, online holiday shopping, or even Facebook. Try downloading Firefox or Google Chrome for free.
Once that’s all set, be sure to update your anti-spyware software to keep yourself safe. And come on back to CC, we’ll keep an eye out for ya!

well big fucking duh that internet explorer is dangerous, it always has been!!! you might as well as write your bank account number on the side of a bus.
definitely use firefox!! download adblock plus so you can stop some really sneaky spyware. oh and delete your cookies often, obviously. and use some anti-virus software, but beware of norton and mcafee-they can make viruses even worse and you might not know it, trust me on this one!! i recommend avg or avast.

Who even uses IE anymore?
I’m rockin’ the Safari right now.
Firefox is my fave though.
