One of the leading anti-virus companies from China have made public that during the weeklong celebrations of the “Labor day” more than 1.4 million computers caught viruses from the wide area networks, WANs, as well as the local area networks, LANs.
“Kingsoft” stated through their statistics that somewhere around 1,421,198 computers were infected through viruses throughout those weeklong holidays, which is infact one-third more in number than last year.
Anti-virus specialist Dai Guangjian added that - “Most of the computers were affected by Trojan viruses because more Internet users play online games or shop online during the holidays.”
The “Trojan” is one of the notorious viruses on this planet as it holds a bad reputation of stealing pass-codes / passwords of the online users in different sectors like gaming and e-banking facilities.
I am sure “Norton” has a lot in store to tackle such viral softwares!
