If you use the Internet every day, you are more at risk
 
Those of us that use the Internet on a frequent basis are typically at more risk than light and infrequent surfers.

Leaving your email address on web pages and sites inevitably leads to the receipt of spam and junk email but it can also lead to the receipt of more sinister emails.

Hackers and malicious software coders use automated software to lift email addresses from the wilds of the Internet and then forward viruses and other undesirable attachments to your email.
 
As well as emails, though, other
threats also exist. Peer to peer file sharing has become increasingly popular and with this increase in popularity has come an increase in the number of infected files that are forwarded using this method. Never download unrecognized files and always ensure that any file you do download has the kind of properties that you would expect. If you can't view the file type or a file has a different file extension type to the one you would expect then you should avoid it.
 
Chat rooms and Instant messenger can also be used to transmit viruses over the Internet. You are the most potent weapon you have against viruses and other online threats, so always be diligent when working with unknown file types from any sender.
