If you're using Twitter, Facebook or any other social networking site, you should be aware of the potential security dangers and vulnerabilities to your image and identity. "Members of online social networks may be more vulnerable to financial loss, identity theft and malware infection than they realize," according to a new survey from Webroot.

Whether you are a new Friend or an accomplished Twitterer, here are a few things you DON'T want to do:

• FALL for It (Don't give critical information like a credit card to ANYONE! Even if you get the message from a friend, "I'm stuck in London and I need money. Please help!" - DON'T do it! It's probably a 'bad guy' that has broken into your friend's account.)

• Expose Yourself (That photo of you from last weekend may not make a good impression with your boss or clients. Mixing personal photos, videos or comments can be a real problem. Also, identity theft can be relatively easy for the bad guys if you share too much information.)

• Finger Rage (I don't care how upset you are, don't just start ranting. Step back. Slowly count to 10. When you are calm, start posting again. Slinging mud at someone or something doesn't help your popularity or image!

• Spill the Beans (Got something interesting happening at your company? Be careful not to share your company's intellectual property. That's great information that your competitor can now use!)

• I'm Popular! (Racking up the most friends, followers or connections doesn't help you. Connecting with lots of people increases the risk of inviting the 'bad guys.')

• Click Happy (Resist the urge to click on everything you receive. Some of those links might be malicious and turn your computer into a zombie - and you won't know it!)
