connect to an internet 
service provider (ISP).
Connecting to the internet 
• Dial-up/modem - Uses a phone line and a modem.

line is available.

Browsers

www.microsoft.com www.mozilla.com
How browsers work? 
• You tell the browser which computer you want to 
connect to by typing in a website address (URL). 
Your browser doesn’t go anywhere. The page comes 
to you! (That’s why they call them web servers)

• Webmail allows you to 
access email from any 
computer hooked up

them and compose new mail 
offline.

The advantages of Internet 
• Information: 
You can find any type of information on any 
subject with the help of the search engines. 
• Communication: 
By sending an e-mail, we can contact a person 
who is physically present thousand miles away within the 
fraction of a second’s time. 
• Entertainment: 
A wide variety of entertainment including video 
games, music, movies, chat room, news and others can 
be accessed through the Internet.
• E-commerce: 
E-commerce is a fantastic option through which 
you can shop anything anywhere from the world. 
• Formation of communities: 
A number of people can participate in different 
types of debates and discussions, express their views and 
gather valuable knowledge. 
• Services: 
A variety of services are offered via Internet, for 
example job searching, online banking, buying movie 
tickets, hotel reservations and consultation services etc. 
When you avail these services offline, they become more 
expensive.
The disadvantages of Internet 
• Spamming: 
Spamming denotes distribution of unnecessary e-mails 
in large numbers that are meaningless and block the 
whole system. 
• Theft of personal details: 
While using the Internet, there is high probability 
that your personal details like name, address and credit 
card number may be accessed by some other person and 
used for fraudulent. 
• Virus threat: 
PCs linked to the Internet have high probability of 
virus attacks and as a result of this your hard disk can 
crash, giving you a lot of trouble.
