Brad Pitt Is Bad For Your Computer


Internet security company McAfee have declared that if you decide to search for the words 'Brad Pitt' on a search engine then you may as well throw away your computer and go back to an abacus. Not because you're an idiot (though if you're searching for Brad then that remains a distinct possibility) but because the creators of all the bad bugs out there use his name to lure unsuspecting people in before infecting their systems. Unlike Jonathan King who just used his own name.

If you search for some Brad Pitt wallpaper or pictures on the internet you have an 18 percent chance of your computer becoming infected with spyware, adware, viruses and pictures of Brad Pitt. Scary stuff, and remember that's not a 17 percent chance, or a 19 percent chance, it's 18 percent - that's how accurate these McAfee people are.

Did you know they sold a prohibitively expensive spyware blocker, by the way? Their spokesman, speaking in a scary voice in a darkened room with just a torch under his chin for illumination moaned...

"Web surfers looking for celebrity gossip, screen savers and ring tones are often directed to fake internet sites that look legitimate but pose a risk to the security of their computers."

In other words, BUY MCAFEE PRODUCTS OR YOUR COMPUTER HAS AN 18 PERCENT CHANCE OF BEING DEAD!!!LOL!

Brad Pitt isn't the only one though. If you're searching for 'Justin Timberlake', 'Heidi Montag' or 'Beyonce' then your computer may be at risk. Alternatively, if you're searching for 'Kerry Katona' then you ARE Kerry Katona obsessively trawling the internet for a mention of yourself, and your home and cars may be at risk.
