Videos – one of the most vulnerable thins is video, like YouTube, which is Flash.

These are the advises :

1) Anti virus and ad ware software, run every single day. Ad-Ware, SpyBot, Symantic…these should all be companies that you are not only aware of but also quite familiar with when it comes to online safety. These programs will help keep your identity safe.

2) Monitor your childrens’ activities on the internet. Just make sure that they aren’t giving out any personal information to anyone on the internet.

3) Make sure that there are certain steps that you are taking to prevent identity theft other than those listed above. This weekend Lizzie mentioned shopping online for things. Well, most credit card companies now offer ways to shop a little safer including virtual numbers. With a virtual number you can shop and if some online retailer decides to take your credit number for a “spin” they won’t get very far.

Keep these things in mind and perhaps you can have a clear conscious when going to bed at night.

This was done on 25th September 2003.

The Trademark Office has also applied the eighth edition of the International Classification of Goods and Services, bringing the total to 45 classes as of 31st May 2003. According to the new classification, the local class 35, which used to include all service marks, divided into 11 service mark classes. Trademark applications for goods in class 33 remain unacceptable.

Trademark owners are advised to file Iranian applications based on a home or any other foreign registration. Otherwise, it must be mentioned in the application that no registration has been granted for the mark in home or foreign country. Filing the Iranian application based on a foreign registration will be the evidence of prior and continuous use of the trademark.
