Searching for Jessica Biel on the Internet could prove to be extremely risky for your computer, as she has been named America’s “Most Dangerous Celebrity in Cyberspace” by Internet researchers.

Computer protection company McAfee looked at popular search engines such as Google and Yahoo! in assessing the risk by clicking on celebrity-related website links.

The company has said that cybercriminals are using A-listers names and images to lure Internet users who surf the Web for the latest gossip, screen savers and ringtones to “fake” Web sites that look legitimate.

Such sites could be loaded with spyware collecting information about users without their knowledge, and viruses that can infiltrate computers, with the goal of making money and committing ID theft.

They found that Biel was the riskiest US celebrity target, with one in five celebrity websites related to her being potentially harmful.

Here are the top 10 ‘risky’ US celebrities and the percentage of websites related to them, which were found to be potentially harmful:

1. Jessica Biel – 20.1 per cent
2. Beyonce – 17.9
3. Tom Brady – 17.4
4. Jessica Simpson – 17.6
