Devilsnight2003 Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 A virus can be picked up from any website in many different ways, it can be anything to bad cookies, downloading bad files, executing bad code, bad scripts. As long as you have good anti-virus software and its kept upto date then there should be any need to be paranoid, just make sure you have regular system restore points and that you run regular anti-virus scans. Wouldn't hurt to also make sure that you've got programs like Spybot, AVG and Adaware which are all free to get ride of unwanted software.

Clogz Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Get a good virus scanner. And the cardinal rule of the internet: If you don't think it can be trusted - don't use it.
