i accidently looked at this bad site...and i was wonderin if i will get a virus just from lookn at it.....i didnt download anything at all....i just looked at it....will i get a virus or ne thing???
Some sites just looking have embedded trojans in them. If you have good antivirus program, the embedded trojans or virus would be detected and destroyed in real time. If you don't, I suggest that you run the antivirus program you have with a full scan and see if you come up clean.
you might not get a virus from looking at one bad page , but you can get a lot of pop - ups asking you for things and advertising other websites , that are basicly the same . Don't worry , you probably won't get one .
I can give a few links that offer free virus and spyware removers...! Norton, AVG , Avast are free antivirus software. Ad-aware, Ewido are free spyware removers. You can download free softwares at
