Actress Jessica Biel has overtaken Brad Pitt as the most dangerous celebrity to search in cyberspace, according to Internet security company McAfee Inc.

For the third consecutive year, McAfee surveyed which A-list celebrity was the riskiest to track on the Internet after Pitt topped the list last year and Paris Hilton came in first in 2007.

Biel, 27, who shot to fame in the TV show "7th Heaven" and most recently starred in "Easy Virtue," was deemed the most dangerous, with fans having a one-in-five chance of landing at a website that has tested positive for online threats, such as spyware, adware, spam, phishing, and viruses.

"Cybercriminals are star watchers too - they latch onto popular celebrities to encourage the download of malicious software in disguise," McAfee's Jeff Green said in a statement.

"Consumers' obsession with celebrity news and culture is harmless in theory, but one bad download can cause a lot of damage to a computer."

"Every day, cybercriminals use celebrities' names and images, like Kim Kardashian and Rihanna, to lure surfers searching for the latest stories, screen savers and ringtones to sites offering free downloads laden with malware," the statement added.

Coming second in the list for the second year running was pop star Beyonce, with McAfee finding that putting "Beyonce ringtones" into a search engine yielded a dangerous website linking to a distributor of adware and spyware.

Actress Jennifer Aniston was third, with more than 40 percent of the Google search results for "Jennifer Aniston screensavers" containing nasty viruses.

Young Hollywood stars Miley Cyrus, Ashley Tisdale and Lindsay Lohan all edged out Heidi Montag and Jessica Alba who appeared on last year's list.

They also ranked higher than other young personalities including "Twilight" stars Robert Pattinson who came 30th and Kristen Stewart who was 20th, the Jonas Brothers, Taylor Swift, Lauren Conrad, Vanessa Hudgens and Zac Efron.

Megan Fox and Angelina Jolie tied as the eighth most dangerous celebrities on the Web while newlyweds Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen came in fourth and sixth respectively.

However, U.S. President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama, who have featured on most celebrities list this year, were not at the top of risky public figures to search.

The Obamas ranked in the bottom-third of this year's results, at No. 34 and No. 39 respectively.

Brad Pitt came 10th in the list this year.

 

迈克菲网络安全公司的最新调查显示，女星杰西卡•贝尔取代布拉德•皮特，成为本年度网络搜索中最危险的明星。

这是迈克菲公司连续第三年对网络搜索最危险的一线明星进行调查，去年皮特登上榜首，而2007年则是帕丽斯•希尔顿。

今年的调查显示，“杰西卡•贝尔”被认为是网络搜索中最危险的明星，粉丝登录至具有网络威胁网站的几率为五分之一，如间谍软件、广告软件、垃圾邮件、网络欺诈以及电脑病毒。现年27岁的贝尔因出演电视剧《七重天》一举成名，她最新出演的一部电影为《水性杨花》。

迈克菲公司的杰夫•格林在一份声明中称：“网络罪犯也很关注明星，他们盯上明星，利用他们引诱人们下载伪装好的恶意软件。”

“消费者关注名人新闻和文化从理论上说并没有害处，但一旦遇到一个有毒下载，就会对电脑造成很大损坏。”

声明称：“网络罪犯每天都在利用诸如金•卡戴珊和蕾哈娜等名人的姓名和图片，把在网上搜索（名人）八卦新闻、屏幕保护程序和铃声的网民引诱至可提供免费下载但同时带有恶意软件的网站。”

排在第二位的是流行天后碧昂斯。迈克菲公司的调查显示，在搜索引擎中输入“碧昂斯铃声”，搜索结果中有一个危险网站，其链接指向一个广告软件和间谍软件发行商。

女星珍妮弗•安妮斯顿位列第三，在Google上搜索“珍妮弗•安妮斯顿屏保”，有超过40%的搜索结果包含恶意病毒。

好莱坞年轻明星麦莉•塞勒斯、阿什丽•提斯代尔和林赛•罗韩今年跻身该榜，而去年榜上的海蒂•蒙塔格和杰西卡•奥尔芭则跌出榜单。

同时上榜但相对靠后的其他年轻名人包括，出演《暮光之城》的两位影星罗伯特•帕丁森（排名第30）和克里斯汀•斯图尔特（排名第20）、“乔纳斯兄弟”乐队、泰勒•斯威夫特、劳伦•康拉德、凡妮莎•哈金斯和扎克•埃夫隆。

此外，梅根•福克斯和安吉丽娜•朱莉并列第八，新婚夫妇汤姆•布兰迪和吉赛尔•邦辰分列第四和第六位。

然而，今年在很多名人榜上露脸的美国总统巴拉克•奥巴马和第一夫人米歇尔•奥巴马却没有排在该榜前列。

他们排在排行榜的最后三分之一，分列第34位和第39位。

布拉德•皮特今年排名第10。
