Hilary Duff has to be supervised by her boyfriend when she uses the internet.

The 'Stay Cool' actress struggles with technology and enlists the help of hockey player Mike Comrie when surfing the web.

She said: "I'm really slow. You should see me on the internet. I'm really bad on the internet. If I have to find something or look something up, Mike has to be, 'I'll show you!' "

However, Hilary says she is ready to join the latest social networking craze, website Twitter.

She said: "I didn't start Twittering yet but my assistant set up an account for me."

While Mike offers Hilary technical support, the 21-year-old blonde star recently revealed she stands up for him if he gets abuse when playing for the New York Islanders.

She said: "I like to sit in the audience, I don't sit up in a box or anything, and people started to know that I'm sitting there, and they'll be like 'Mike sucks!' Or they try to rile me up and I'm like, 'Hey, watch it! I'll come up there, you know.'

"But I try to not be that crazy girlfriend."
