Marsh Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 They index a ton of sites, how can they tell if one of those millions of sites has a virus on it. Also unless you ran something its pretty unlikely you get a virus from there. You can put them in images etc, but its not very common. Could just be a hard drive malfunction.

Guest Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 You can get virus links from all kinds of places. If a website, even a reputable one, has ads and it doesn't monitor or filter them in anyway there is a chance one with a virus will get on there.

Godlord Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 I can't help it people, mainly pointing at some operating system developers like Microsoft, are too stupid to still use HTTP, HTML, PHP, JS, etc. without even changing the protocol itself to full binary instead of text, IMO.Regards, Goddie, the Irresistible.

Andiii Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 I always use google, but when I look for stuff that I have to download, I search it with yahoo because it actual warns if the website has a virus or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
