Can the search results of Google, Yahoo, MSN and Technorati really be so hazardous to our computers' health? Sadly, the answer is yes. So why do we click on hyperlinks with such wild abandon? The answer is that most of us have been taught that as long as we're not accessing pornography or illegal file-sharing sites, and as long as we keep our antivirus and anti-spyware updated, we're safe. It's time for a reality check.
