Cant wait to see the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince?
In a e-mail release by Ireland-based PC Tools, an anti-virus software company company, they stated that cybercriminals are targeting peer-to-peer (P2P) search engines that share illegal downloads of the movies in advance of its screening.
The text description will be Watch Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Online for Free. It redirects the downloader to a web site, which will prompt to install an additional streamviewer. The streamviewer, however, is a malware software.
Malware software is designed to infiltrate or damage a computer system without the owners informed consent.
So wait and watch Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in theaters on July 15 this summer. You won't have any regrets watching it on the big screen and your computer may thank you.
