More and more ordinary computer users attacked dangerous viruses, and even the owners are unaware of this. This is the case, since Kandeys Lokler (Candace Locklear) a couple of weeks ago. She quietly worked in the office when her computer suddenly «get into a wax» and began to send letters to viruses all her colleagues. While she understood what did happen, several of its employees opened dangerous mail, by infecting their computers. To resolve the issue lasted 8 hours. The woman said that nothing pointed to the dangerous list, which makes it the computer itself. It is not certain that her car completely clean.
Such cases - are not uncommon. Computer security experts say that tens of millions of PCs infected with viruses, and their users about it does not even suspect. Some harmful programs record every stroke of the keyboard keys, and then transmit valuable information such as data bank accounts, passwords and credit card numbers, hackers. Others turn PCs into «zombie», literally passing the criminals have complete control over them. «Zombie» can act as servers that send thousands of spam messages, as the owner of the machine does not even suspect. Hackers can remotely change the text and sent to the volume of information.
Such an attack has recently undergone a company Monster Worldwide Inc., When about a month ago, millions of applikantov confidential information was stolen by criminals using «zombies».
Experts warn that such attacks difficult to capture, and the company together with the users must be vigilant, but have said that the situation with hackers - more than the worse. Nevertheless, it is necessary to adhere to basic safety rules, for example, to install the latest versions of antivirus software, which can be downloaded online, and protect their files this way.
