0


As Valentine week is going on and a lot of people using search engines to find gifts, cards and screensavers to their Valentine and at the same time malware authors and cybercriminals are ready for it. According McAfee some Valentine’s Day searches for poisoned terms and found some nasty ones very quickly. Screensavers and ecards are always popular:

Even Rolex watches on Valentine’s Day are not safe:
