Limiting the time spent on the computer and replacing that time with a hobby, or hanging out with friends, etc.

Answer by MINDDOCTOR
Internet Addiction I am sure is going to be placed in our bible as we know it. DSM 4-R as a mental illness.

Like all addication, we first have to recognize that we have and addiction to the internet, or for that matter any thing else in life and make a decision in our life that we are going to do every thing possible to cut back on the hours that we spend on the internet. (Say just ten minutes doubled each day until we find a suitable time that is no longer considered and addiction).

We can find love and many other alternatives to take us away from the computer. And believe me that true love is one thing that will take a person away from spending their time on the computer instead of enjoying their love in life.
