Are your Web searches putting your computer at risk?

Some Internet searches could infect your computer with a virus.In a recent report, security firm McAfee, Inc. revealed how cybercriminals use popular search terms to unleash malicious software that can infect a computer and, in some cases, steal a user's identity.

McAfee researchers analyzed more than 2,600 of the most popular search terms of 2008 from a range of sources, including the Google Zeitgeist and the Yahoo! 2008 Year in Review.

i just searched all 10 and didnt get anything but itchy balls :( booo

I saw this on a local newscast, they only mentioned the top 3. WTF is up with #5?? You can't be serious that people will get viruses from searching about the fucking Olympics.

Some of those are strange. I would never think Printable Fill in Puzzles would be on the list.

thx for the list

list of balls :)

There's no money in Printable Fill in Puzzles :)

and where is "free porn"? most of the people infected by any computer virus took it from free porn pages :2 cents:

I search for some of them and i didn has a problem

I can has a virus?

dont download and execute the .exe. iz haz virus no matter how much pussy they promise you

yet they always Bitch on the news about how porn sites can infect your PC with things.

It is a bit of an obscure search string "Phelps, Weber-Gale, Jones and Lezak Wins 4x 100m Relay" -- and I cannot imagine that too many people search for that exact term.

'trial' for any software has been more dangerous for me than any of those. Not that I have ever searched for Phelps..lol

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh ...

Thanks for the info.

well, it's safe to say that the searches gave you crabs.
