"Most dangerous internet celebrity" revealed

20 August 2010 [16:53] - TODAY.AZ
Cameron Diaz has been named the most dangerous celebrity to search for online.
Computer software makers McAfee warned that Diaz tops a list of stars whose names are often linked to online scams, according to The AP. Other celebrities on the company's annual list included Julia Roberts and Jessica Biel.

McAfee's findings suggest that criminals believe that using famous names is the most effective way of luring people into visiting risky websites. If viruses on these sites infect a computer, the user's personal information such as e-mail passwords and bank account details can be stolen.
