Glossary

scroll mouse A mouse with a scroll wheel (between the two mouse buttons) for automatic scrolling through long documents or Web pages.

search engine A program,

accessed on the Internet, that allows you to search large databases for information, using keywords or phrases.

See also database.

secure Web site A Web site that encrypts data to protect it from unauthorized use. When you purchase items over the Internet, you are asked to type your name, mailing address, e-mail address, and credit card information on an electronic form. Sending information to a secure Web site is comparable to giving it over the telephone when you order from a catalog. (But never send your social security number over the Internet. Criminals can steal your identity with your social security number.)

See also encrypt.

serial port A small connector on the back of the computer (or keyboard) for plugging in a thin cable attached to a serial device, such as a mouse. Serial devices transfer data, one bit at a time, through a data wire. The serial cable has two wires for bidirectional communication (sending and receiving information simultaneously). See also digital and parallel port.

shareware Software you can try before you buy. After a trial period, usually 30 days, the program uninstalls unless you pay for it. You can download shareware from the Internet. See also software.

shortcut An icon on the Windows desktop that you double-click to launch a program.
