Malware is Widespread

Let's face the music! More than 97% of all e-mails sent over the net are unwanted, according to a Microsoft security report. This picture will further numb your mind.

However, we can still have some good news out of these bad news. As in China, a majority of malicious softwares were targeting your web browser configuration, while in Brazil, most of the malwares were directly aiming at your bank accounts. Take some solace now? =)

Also something worth your heed in the report is what it termed scareware, fake security programs which falsely tell people they need to install software which does nothing other than attempt to steal personal details from users' PC.

People! Stay smart in this virus world!
