soulsister Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Ummmm...I just heard on NBC news--Today show, that searching for anything Emma Watson on the internet, can give your computer a virus. Be careful on the sites that you visit, especially those with pop-ups. Those are the ones that carry the various trojan viruses. They said that Emma has replaced Heidi Klum, as the name that triggers viruses. Link to post Share on other sites

Maestro Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 According to an article I read the Dutch actress Carice van Houten (you may know her from Valkyrie where she played Tom Cruise's wife) is higher on the list than Emma, still Emma is of course more famous so she gets searched more often than her.

Yes, make sure your anti virus scanner is up to date and your browser. Make sure you know to which site you are going and I suggest using add ons to block unwanted scripts and ads and if something seems suspicious...you are probably right and you should leave the site immediately. No Emma picture is worth losing everything on your computer Link to post Share on other sites

Jade Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 It's shocking to know but not surprising. It's just a shame something so beautiful has a virus. Link to post Share on other sites
ling Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 You should just have good anti-virus software and never really click on a site that you don't know or trust in general, though. The fact that Emma's name may be linked to any of this shouldn't change anything. And in most cases, it's not like a virus will be able to rank very high on Google, so if you stick to legit sources you find within the first 10 pages or so there, you should be fine.

Arie Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I read this too. McAfee's reported their 2012 list of "most dangerous celebrities" to search online. Emma was at the top. Fans who query "Emma Watson and nude pictures" or "Emma Watson and busted" run a 1-in-8 chance of landing on a site that has tested positive for viruses and other malicious software. Basically, if you stay away from searching those sort of inappropriate things, then your good!! I agree with ling as well, get an anti-virus software regardless. Link to post Share on other sites

Jonny Carinthia Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 According to a newspaper-article here in Austria the most dangerous search is "Emma Watson nude".Well, we all knew, that she never did such pics, so there should be no danger to real fans.... Link to post Share on other sites
ling Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Why are they all women? Because it's pervs searching for porn. Not saying that looking at porn makes anyone a perv, just that looking for porn of a celebrity that has not consented to be in porn does, since much of the stuff out there is photo manipulation. Or photos stolen from cell phones. None are consensual, which is disgusting. Link to post Share on other sites
