Jessica Biel named 'most dangerous celebrity' for Internet searches

NEW YORK -- Jessica Biel is the most dangerous celebrity on the Internet.

Security technology company McAfee Inc. on Tuesday reported that searches for the 27-year-old actress are more likely to lead to online threats such as spyware and viruses than searches for any other celebrity.

McAfee said in its third annual report on the subject that fans searching for the actress have a one-in-five chance of ending up at a website designed to damage one's computer.

"Cybercriminals are star watchers, too," said Jeff Green, senior vice president of McAfee's product development. "They latch onto popular celebrities to encourage the download of malicious software in disguise."

Following Biel in the report, in order, were Beyonce, Jennifer Aniston, Tom Brady and Jessica Simpson.

McAfee noted President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama are relatively safe searches, ranking 34th and 39th, respectively.
