More virus sites?

I was randomly on EggCave, about a minute ago, and I get the norton popup, "A recent attempt to attack your computer has been blocked."

I viewed the details for it, and it said I was being attacked by some website...

I don't want to say the name of the site, as they might find me again that way. xD

But it was some site I've never even heard of...

Ironically, I was on Youtube today looking at videos of computer infections, AND at English class today, I was talkign to some boys about pathetic virus sites. Oh gosh. Don't tell me ANOTHER thing to do in spare time is killing my computer!

Does anyone have anymore knowledge on these virus attacks or virus attacks attempts? I want as much knowledge as possible. Computer ifections scare me to death, almost as much as the sound of a balloon popping can make me nearly have a heart attack. Lol.

@dreamer
Well usually it starts with things you click on, like a link....

I don't think its EggCave cuz its pretty good with these things😋

All I know about viruses is that Apple computers get attacked less often.
^^;
Other than that,
No idea.
I accidentally downloaded hundreds of viruses because of Frost wire.
I can't believe they got rid of Lime Wire... ):

@Orange Well I've been crusing the internet a lot today. xD

I was on youtube
I went to a website to play a game about jelly people
I did several google searches
I went to several sites to play Worlds Hardest Game AND Worlds Easiest Game
And I was going to Smosh.com but accidentally left out the O, and ended up at some random website about babies or something. xD
AND I was going to youtube and accidentally left out the u in 'tube', and ended up at a scam site like "Congratualtions! Pick a free ipad or 500 gift card! Hurry! 20 seconds left!"


So there ARE lots of reasons. But any attempt at a virus just scares me to death, regardless. xD

I hate Google I images. They have a butt load of viruses.

You see the ads on this page? Yeah, don't click those. I always get spam emails, like "so and so knows you and they want to be your friends". And once I got an email from this lady showing me a picture of her. Its probably just spam. Just DON'T click any ads.

But I found my way to eggcave by ads. 😱 Well, check if the site is virus free! 😃

When you click something random, and is has those fake winner stuff, "X" out right away. If you click it, BOOM. Instant virus. My mom has done this hundreds of times. xD

On eggcave, I accidentally click but luckily haven't had a virus. And if the you have won thing is in a website you need to use, ignore it and don't click around or near it.
