How to Get a MySpace Account Without Your Parents Knowing

MySpace is the place to be. Everyone you know has a MySpace account but you, because your parents have forbidden you from getting one. If your parents are strict and won't let you get a MySpace account, here are some tips to get around their rules.

Instructions

1. Use a computer outside your home to set up your MySpace page and also for checking it. Public libraries and Internet cafes usually have computers for use by anyone. This keeps you from having to look over your shoulder for your parents.

2. Have a secondary email address that you use for MySpace. Parents can search under your email address to find your page, so if you have a second one that they don't know about, use that one to set up your page.

3. Clear your Internet browsing history and cookies each time you log off MySpace on your home computer. If you want to keep your page a secret from your parents, don't leave them clues to follow. Also, it's a good idea to not be on the site when your parents are home and can walk in and see you.

4. Add a generic picture to your page. That way, if you forget to clear your history or your cookies and they bring up the MySpace page, you can always say it's not yours since there will be no picture to identify you.

5. Keep your MySpace page private. If your parents happen to stumble upon your page, keeping it private prevents them from seeing what is on your page or even identifying you.

Tips & Warnings

• Refuse to give personal details to people you meet on MySpace. You never know who you are really meeting, and there are dangerous people who use sites like this to specifically lure unsuspecting people.
