Did you know people will actually download a computer virus if they don't have one?
Obviously, some people don't know that it is good not to get a computer virus. In an online experiement, folks were offered a free computer virus to download simply for clicking the link. Over 400 people clicked the link. Were they really that ignorant of computer viruses? Perhaps some clicked in mistake, some out of curiosity. There was no actual virus to down load, but the experiement concluded that this type of advertising could be used maliciously.
