Orthodox) Judaism {\textendash} to the Internet. In the introduction we compare the approach
of the Abrahamic religions to the Internet. Then we focus on the Haredi
community (especially in the contemporary State of Israel) and their specific approach
to the Internet. This article argues that the use of the Internet, although officially
banned by many Haredi Rabbis, is in fact tolerated on a pragmatic basis. We
also survey which kind of {\textquotedblleft}protection against secular threads{\textquotedblright} the Haredim1 use
(filtering software, Holy Shabbat protection). In the last part of this article the role
of the Internet in Israeli religious politics, and by its uses by fundamentalist and
radical Jewish groups, is surveyed},
