Synopsis

This handbook for the PC or Macintosh user, who may be considering linking their computer for a computer network, or may have already done so, and wants to know what networks are, what they can offer, and how to get the best from the "net". Networks can be used for business, research or leisure. Topics covered include how to make the most of your network, and keep on the right side of your network system manager; access the many thousands of shareware and freeware games and other programs available in archives around the world; avoid computer viruses; exchange messages, mail, faxes, programs and pictures with friends and colleagues on the network; use other computers remotely from your own; join the global community of network news readers; and access the vast resources of information archives all over the world. With its extensive glossary, this book will guide you through the quagmire of jargon which surrounds the subject of networks. Popular network computer programs such as those from Novell and Microsoft are explained as examples. Useful network addresses are given to get you started on your journey through the Internet.
