Today, there are still a huge number of Internet users who fall into the malware trap, no matter what operating system they use. I guess the people behind the biggest names in technology are fed up as well.

Enter Google, Twitter, and Facebook, who have teamed up to help rid the Internet of malware. [Read more…] about Internet Cleanup Campaign Launched by Google, Twitter, and Facebook
