The present invention relates to an Internet service, and more particularly to a method for preventing the leakage of Internet personal information using a wireless terminal.

Recently, as the number of Internet users is increasing, problems related to personal information security are increasing rapidly. Moreover, as the number of Internet portal service providers is increasing indiscriminately, more and more companies are providing free e-mail services. Also, as internet commerce is settled, more transactions are being purchased through the Internet and paid using electronic money.
