Are Search Engines Safe

Have you every lost control of your browser - been taken somewhere you really didn’t want to go on the Net, suddenly been deluged with pop-ups and other garbage that you never asked for?

It’s something that can happen to anyone who uses the Internet and it really doesn’t matter whether you’re a home user or a small business. You can pick up those nasty little programs in lots of places that you might consider as safe to surf.

You can even pick them up on search engines - and in the paid advertising - and Google is one of the least safe search engines if you want to avoid that garbage.

A division of McAfee has produced an interesting report - The Safety of Internet Search Engines - follow the link to read some very interesting findings.
