When you click on that big blue "e" on your
desktop
where does it take you-
|
- Your email?
- To read the latest news?
- Or to do some online shopping?
Since we visit these websites everyday, most people feel
safe and trust that their favorite websites will protect them
from hackers and safeguard their information. But sadly, a
lot can happen behind the scenes that you're not even aware of.
Hackers have discovered secret passageways
Because of the way the program Internet Explorer was built, hackers have
discovered several hidden passageways and have used these to quietly break
into your PC. By using these secret entrances they can:
- Expose and potentially infect your computer with spyware,
which is similar to a virus.
**Note-
your anti-virus software will not protect you from spyware.**
- This dangerous spyware can download in the background, spy on all
your online habits and invade your privacy! Worse still- this all can
happen WITHOUT YOUR KNOWLEDGE.
- Once on your computer, hackers and spyware can:
Rack up huge credit card debt and ruin your credit
by stealing your financial information
Steal your identity by copying your social security number
View all the sensitive and personal files and information
stored on your PC
- These unwanted intruders can take over your Internet and bombard
you with pop-up windows. And oftentimes these pop-up windows
contain pornographic or offensive images that children should not see!
