Well it sounds same with fishing because it's the same principle,they usually make you put information in places that they control which means when you give information in some unknown website (etc..) all of your info may gone to a hacker that is trying to get your information. if some wants to steal your facebook account in example they may try to make a fake facebook website which behind it it's all fake and the reason that the "fake website" it's made it's only to get people's information. What can i do so i don't get involved? Well simply don't put your information anywhere in the web that's seems unknown. Keyloggers : What is Keyloggers? Well it has all the meaning on the word Key for any key on your keyboard,loggers it store your keys being pressed on your keyboard. Keylogger is a virus that will get on your computer usually from an infected file if it's well binded even your anti-virus will not be able to identify it. What it does is gets on your computer even if you restart your computer it will startup like all the other windows features,antivirus etc... after that the hacker will have you in control every key you press it doesn't matter if it's a game or social media even your bank account. What can i do so i don't get involved? 1) Don't download things you don't know if they're virus or not 2) Get a good Anti-Virus 3) You may have now at the moment try scanning your computer with an antivirus for infected files if it doesn't seem to find viruses go to msconfig - > check the proccesses tab untick unknown programs. Hope you learned something! ;) Credits MasectTV (Me) Edited August 1, 2014 by McKenZiex Quote
