Searching for a flaming scoop of celebrity poop on Brad Pitt could be hazardous to your PC. McAfee Security has dubbed Brad Pitt the “Most Dangerous Celebrity to Search For on the Internet.”

Cybercriminals are using A-list names and images to lure people surfing to “fake” websites in record numbers, the online security firm said Wednesday. Fans eagerly searching for Brad Pitt wallpaper, screensavers, and pictures had an 18 percent chance of having their PCs infected with a virus in 2008.

Justin Timberlake followed Brad as the second “Most Dangerous A-List Male for Web Searching.” Beyonce and Heidi Montag from The Hills topped the list for “Most Dangerous Women to Seek out on the Internet.”

“Cybercriminals employ numerous methods, yet one of the simplest but most effective ways is to trick consumers into infecting themselves by capitalising on (internet users’) interest in celebrity gossip,” McAfee says.
