well...i could tell you no, but i dont guarantee that you wont get a viruse in photobucket
.you can always get a virus, no web host can protect u not even yahoo..
you can get a virus any where my computer was attacked on myspace!
No.
I doubt it very much. I have had Photobucket Pro in three accounts for about 5 years and never caught anything. Nor have I had a problem with Photobucket links.
Smallpox has been around forever; poxes generally even longer and they have infected everything from dolphins to grasshoppers with variations own individual strains.
Pox has such a massive DNA make-up at somepoint, could it have been the dominant species on the planet
As it can transmutate to just about any new host species, forever jumping to avoid eradication could it be that the pox actually predates everything else?
Could it be the reason for it's ability to jump so successfully is because it has in its' overall lifetime met everything further down the evolutionary order so it has a genetic memory making it easier to stick in the new host?
It is very quickly apparent from sequence studies that there can have been no single origin of viruses as organisms. For instance, there is no obvious way one can relate viruses of the size and complexity of the Poxviridae [double-stranded linear DNA,130-375 kb, 150-300 genes] with viruses like the tobamoviruses [ss linear RNA, 6-7 kb, 4 genes], or either of these with the Geminiviridae [ss circular DNA, 2.7 - 5.4 kb, 3-7 genes]. Thus, there can be no simple ''family tree'' for viruses; rather, their evolutionary descent must resemble a number of scattered ''bushes''. Viruses as a class of organism must be therefore be considered to be polyphyletic in origins: that is, having a number of independent origins, almost certainly at different times, usually from cellular organisms.
YES!
Virus writers have been targeting Messenger Services for about a year now.
So, make sure that your AV prog has Real Time Protection for Messenger Services as well as all other Internet Activities.
Yes, they can.
Don't accept any file transfers while using YM, or any other chat program, just to be safe. Only accept something from someone you absolutely trust and that they are sure what they're sending you is safe.
In addition, be very careful what you click too while in chat. Check your anti-virus software settings as it might support protecting your IM chat program file transfers like Norton AntiVirus does.
Instant messenger chat programs will soon become the next wave of virus, trojan and spyware attacks. It's already happening to many IM chat users with phishing schemes that look like the login screens of various IM chat sites that trap users into giving up their account information.
So, always look at what you click and also look at your web browser's URL address bar and make sure you're in the right location and not at some other strange sounding website or one that is using an IP number instead of a domain name.
One good IM chat protection program that's available is Zone Alarm's IM Secure Pro. It costs USD $29.95 and includes 1 year of free updates. For more information visit their site.
Viruses r considered to be a link between living and non-living.Hence,it is not possible to exclusively categorise them as living beings and hence they cannot be kept under any of the kingdoms.
Because viruses are still being debated over whether they are a living creature or not. If people are still unsure whether they are lviing are not they won't be included in any kingdom.
A Virus is an errant strand of DNA. They exist and replicate within functional cells of living creatures. This process creates protien strands that are alien to the body the Virus has infected, and makes us sick - Depending upon what these protiens strands do, you can have anything from a Aids to the Flu...
Even so, these virus fail to produce thier own cells, and as such are not part of the Fauna nor Flora kingdoms.
They are parasitic molecules at best...
They're not living things. No metabolism, not alive.
Viruses do not belong to any kingdom because they are actually not living things and were detected just on 20th century!
They are microorganisms like bacteria and yeasts, but so simple that they cannot have a metabolism of their own like other microorganisms do, they cannot even reproduce themselves...they are just packages of nucleic acids and proteins. They have to enter into some other organism having active metabolism and give their genetic code to this organism - and this host shall take care of the reproduction of the virus.
Traditional kingdoms like animals and plants were detected by naked eye and classified from ancient times. Viruses are so small that the can be detected only with electron microscope, first time not before 20th century.
They are actually very mach like machines but because they consist of biopolymers (RNA, DNA, proteins), they still belong into the living world - no matter they cannot live independently!
They could theroetically induce mutations that would make us a more robust species.
In a more short-term view, weak viruses can prime us for immunities for stronger, related viruses and act as a vaccine.
theorectually by reduing the p[opulation and weeding out the week from th gene pool that is a real theory . thy also are intrsting ot study if you area vuroilgist and are only made up of withe a strand of RBNA or DNA so they make for great ways to study a strant of eiter along with possibly n mutaing one ot corrct a condtiopn who n knows .

The FDA has just approved a mix of six different bacteria-killing viruses for use on cold cuts (deli meats) and hot dogs. The bacteriophages (bacteria eaters) are the first ever viruses approved for use as food additives by the FDA. While they are invisible to consumers, they will target and kill bacteria that cause serious food-borne illnesses such as listeriosis, which sickens over 2,500 people in the U.S. alone each year.
I have heard of programs that you can get that totally block it out but i am not sure where to get them does anybody have any links that I can access to get these such programs.
Using limewire and other similar programs is like having sex: Always use protection!! I would reccommend a good firewall/antivirus program. I use norton internet security 2006. It's really good. SCAN EVERYTHING YOU DOWNLOAD!! VIRUSES ARE EVERYWHERE IN LIMEWIRE. if all you download is music and pics you're pretty much safe... if you're out there downloading programs and keygens you'll get so many viruses it can really mess up your pc. don't mess with limewire unless you have a reallly strong security program in place!!! good luck
Do not down load unwanted programs. Better to be on safeside. You may be having a virus or spyware installed on your PC. You insatll a standard antivirus soft ware such as Norton, AVG , Avast ( free antivirus software and Ad-aware, Ewido ( free spyware removers). You can download free softwares at
lookin up images on google? not actually like clikcing on the image and goin to the site but jus searching an image
Not just from doing an image search on Google. You are correct that clicking the image and going to the site is where the risk begins.
if your using windows explorer disable java scripts if using fire fox your safer just make sure windows updates and your antivirus has the latest updates you should be fine
No.
If a Google image search is ''waiting'', then it's because the website is down or the image has been removed. You can sometimes get the image anyway from Google's cached version.
Viruses mainly come in through your email, assuming you use Outlook, Outlook Express, AOL, or other mail client that downloads mail locally to your computer.
no you canot get a virus by looking at something on a website, you can get spyware and adware but if you have a simple anti-virus program yous should be fine.
howver do not download anything from a site you do not trust if the site makes you download the image to use it. you best bet is to stay away.
Not sure, tho i really hope not cos i do it all the time
I get virus every time i click on adult movies in yahoo video search!
Not really. As long as your virus software is up to date, you shouldn't need to worry about viewing images through your browser.
