Guide to Instant Messaging and Glossary of Terms

Parents & Carers Guide to Chat & Instant Messenger
The use of Chat & Instant
Messaging (IM) has been one of
the truly great success stories of the
internet and it has spawned its own
language. Unlike email & traditional typed
communication, IM & Chat is conversational,
like a face-to-face discussion, and uses a
very informal style. Chat & IM users will often
type in abbreviations, slang and emoticons to
save themselves time and express themselves
freely. As with any foreign language, you
need to have a grasp of the basics so that
you feel included and can begin to enjoy it to its full potential.
In common with many internet related applications, their use does not come without the potential for
harm. Care must be taken when using Chat & IM to ensure that your computer and its users remain
protected at all times. IM can act as a direct line to spammers, scammers, identity thieves, online
predators and cyberbullies.
We have produced this simple guide to provide you with some useful advice about keeping your
computer and users safe when using Chat & IM.

Basic safety tips for the use of Instant Messaging
»
Explain to all your computer’s users the benefits and the dangers that the use of IM can bring.
»
Make sure that your computer’s users select non identifiable & non gender specific Instant Messenger names. These names should
be fairly non-descript and should not be designed to attract attention. For example: do not select names such as
youngfreeandsingle@, hotchick14@ or Lolita09@
»
Similarly, if your users utilise the ‘Contact Picture’ feature of IM, ensure that the picture is non-descript and
does not divulge gender, age or any other personal details.
»
Ask your computer’s users if you may see their ‘Buddy Lists’ (personal IM address book) every now and again,
and ask them to verfy who each ‘Buddy’ is.
»
Ensure that your users know that they can ‘turn to you’ for sympathetic advice if they encounter something that
worries them or has led to an unpleasant experience through their use of IM. This is especially important in cases
of ‘cyber bullying’.
»
Ensure that your family and users never give out any personal information whilst using IM. For example: passwords,
address, telephone numbers, mobile numbers etc.
»
Ensure that your computer is protected with the latest updated version of Anti Virus and that you have a firewall operating.
»
Never arrange to meet someone offline that you only know through IM conversations.
»
Make sure you know how to save copies of all the IM conversations that take place on your computer - software such as
Netintelligence’s Ni Parental Control will record and store all IM conversations for you
»
Never accept files or downloads via IM from people you don’t know .This includes web site links (if you do open websites links
- ensure that you have web filtering software present on your machine to prevent exposure to harmful websites)
»
Ensure that you have software present that will enable you to control the use of IM. Ni Parental Control, for example, will allow you to
prevent IM from operating or you can set time limits for when it can be used.
»
Think before you type - don’t send inflammatory messages or incite others to do so.
»
Only send messages that you would be happy to receive.
»
Don’t use CAPITAL LETTERS - it’s considered ‘shouting’, rude and is hard on the eyes
»
Don’t refer to someone by their real name if you are in a chat room or are conversing in a group discussion
»
Get to know the rules before participating in a Chat room or forum. Some discussion boards and chat rooms have special rules
about what you can and can’t say or do. Some users can be very critical to those who break these rules, and may make you and your
users feel uncomfortable.
Chat / IM Glossary
Please note that some of the terms listed include words/phrases of an ‘adult’ nature (marked with asterisks). The compilers felt
that it was important to include these as they are very representative of the type of language used within IM. If you are easily
offended, please do not read this glossary.
