Update Your Browser


One of most important steps you can take to protect yourself online is keeping your browser updated. Browser updates protect you from identity theft, phishing attacks, viruses, trojans, spyware, adware and other forms of malware. Updates are issued periodically to address these problems.  If you’ve not already done so, please enable the automatic update feature of your browser.

In most cases, there is no charge for browser updates. However, if you are using an older computer with an older operating system, it probably does not have the capacity to run current browsers. In that situation, we strongly recommend that you purchase a new computer in order to stay save online.

Here are the latest versions of the most popular computer browsers.  Updated 12-20-22.

  • Chrome – Updates automatically; the latest version is 108.0. Versions below 108.0 are insecure.
  • Microsoft Edge – Updates automatically; the latest version is 107.0. Versions below 107.0 are  insecure.
  • Safari – Updates automatically, the latest version is 15.6. Versions below 15.6.1 are insecure.
  • Firefox – Updates automatically; the latest version is 107. Versions below 103 are insecure.
