Yes because some can steal info and money But if you stay away from crap sites you are almost safe ....
Yes, I afraid very much of viruses infecting my PC. It causes lots of trouble and I had to waste lots of time on cleaning and scanning everything. Some days ago I had to format my PC due to a virus and I lost some of my important data.
I'm not worried about anyone stealing my ID (ID Theft). It's already happen to me and my credit score has been 300 (lowest you can have) for a few years now. Sometimes it upset me, but over all... I feel free. You would be surprised on how freeing it is not to have to worry about such things any more. How silly it seems that once I was worried so much about what some "report" said about me. I keep my own report and that is what matters to me, the hell wit what anyone else says or thinks. As for viruses... No so much. I use a Live CD, with no hard drive. Every time I reboot... I have a fresh start.
everybody will afraid of viruses because the data will be gone or steal with these viruses.. why not using linux? i think windows is user friendly not like linux that my opinion
Very scared. They are annoying, cause a lot of troubles to my computer and I often have no idea how to kill them.
Not really. If you know the main ways that can cause you to get the virus it's pretty easy to stay away from them. But even in the rare cases that I do get them, as stupid as it may seem, I'm too lazy to get rid of them and most of the time I'll end up co-existing with them. Unless it's a really annoying one that really gets in the way of what I'm doing.
Of course everyone is scared of computer virus. It can crash a system and you lose information and someone can even hack into your accounts and steal personal information.
If you use your computer with safe hand, there is no worry about viruses. I use internet also on my PC but there is no virus. I don't use any anti-virus because I browse only safe sites.
No fear. Only a certain respect for the danger. One can not be overly cautious. And the bigger one gest the more he must worry. But not fear. Fear is for the powerless.
There's many user friendly versions of linux, that are just as easy to use as windows, some have the option to download the livecd and try it before installing. Then there's no worrying about viruses. You can also dual boot your system Windows/Linux if there is a certain program you use that's only available on windows.
I normally use Norton Anti-virus which has helped me a lot to throw out viruses which come in my computer and in the cookies. However I just have to be extra careful because there are lots of spammers out on the net who deliberately send out viruses, just to harm you. I am afraid only because all my hard work done would just vanish in seconds if I dont take right precautions for it.
