You’re tech savvy enough to steer clear from hidden viruses and malware inside screensavers, ringtones etc. related to certain celebrities, right? Never the less, if you know somebody that’s not, make sure you send them the link to this post (or use any of the ‘social media’ icons at the bottom) – thank you!
The thing is, security software maker McAfee Inc. has named Jessica Biel to be the most dangerous celebrity online. Not because she herself is dangerous, or so I hope, but because there’s a one-in-five chance of search results for Jessica Biel to take you to a malicious website.
Last year the report named Brad Pitt to be the most dangerous celebrity to search for online, he’s now down to the 10th most dangerous celebrity online, thus being more “safe” than his wife, Angelina Jolie.
According to McAfee Inc., the bad guys are using the “A” celebrity list to cheat users that are searching for latest gossips, screen savers, ringtones and what not, into their malicious websites and download files that you really wish you hadn’t.
McAfee added in the same report: “Cybercriminals are star watchers, too. They latch onto popular celebrities to encourage the download of malicious software in disguise.”
The top 10 list of “A” celebrities you need to be careful about when searching for them online:
- Jessica Biel
- Beyoncé
- Jennifer Aniston
- Tom Brady (I have no idea who this is)
- Jessica Simpson
- Gisele Bündchen (and who’s this?)
- Miley Cyrus (Disney celebrity, right?)
- Angelina Jolie & Megan Fox (shared 8th place)
- Ashley Tisdale (might have heard the name, but doesn’t ring a bell)
- Brad Pitt
I know what you’re thinking right now, so here are the pictures (there’s one for my female readers as well)…
Wow, great. I’m a fan of Megan Fox and Ashley Tisdale.

Jacob, then remember to go to the cinema sometime in 2011 where Megan Fox will be Catwoman in the new Batman movie 🙂
My mom always told me to stay away from girls like that as you never know what you will catch. I guess she was really telling me the truth 😉

Hmm, I wonder why my mom never told me such things, maybe she just figured it would be redundant 😀
Wow, some nice looking pictures. I would have to agree with Doug about staying away, they are way to hot to handle and be with. I can just imagine what would happen 🙂

Yeah, all those bad things that might happen…. spam, malware, virus. Oh, you weren’t talking about the computer….? 🙂
Umm..next time you decide to have a picture for the female readers 🙂 how about Eric Winter, or at least someone who’s not in a shimmering lavender dress. 😀

Eric Winter, doesn’t he look a bit like Brad Pitt? Oh well, I just thought that Brad Pitt was to women what Angelina Jolie was to boys (but her spot is probably about to be taken over by The Fox).
I thought the lavender dress was cool 😀
Oh you did great – the lavender dress was hilarious 😀 but I just don’t care for Brad Pitt at all. I’m probably alone in that; he’s not going broke without me, haha.

Oh Megan Fox, thank you yet again for making a crappy morning a little brighter 🙂
Excellent post and thanks for the pictures, I guess I should stop looking for sexy pictures of Jessica Beil.

Hey – with your job, I wouldn’t be surprised if Jessica Biel stops by for “photoshoot with Extreme John” some day 🙂
