Internet Common Sense

If you didn’t go looking for it, don’t install it! A great many online threats rely on tricking the user into taking some action — whether it be clicking an email link or attachment, or installing a custom browser plugin or application. Typically, these attacks take the form of scareware pop-ups that try to frighten people into installing a security scanner; other popular scams direct you to a video but then complain that you need to install a special video player or app to view the content. Only install software or browser add-ons if you went looking for them in the first place and only directly from the vendor.
