Want to see naked pictures of your favourite Hollywood actresses? It could cost you an expensive trip to your local computer repair shop if you do.

Fake emails claiming to offer nude photographs of Angelina Jolie, Nicole Kidman, Natalie Portman, Milla Jovovich and pixelated videogame babe Lara Croft are behind 80 per cent of computer viruses last month, according to experts.

For, though claiming to contain shocking pictures of female celebrities, the emails, once opened, install a malicious rootkit.

Most viruses are easily caught by a good anti virus program. Please get one.

Angie is a great woman who is using her celebrity to bring so much good to the world. She is truly a caring loving person. I commend her and wish her all the best.

She and Brad should do a photo shoot together, wouldn't that be nice?

If you download the Ann Coulter [nude] pics right after the Angelina ones......Ann's pics will kill the viruses in the Angelina pics, maybe your computer too....but the viruses will be gone.

I have now collected sufficient statistics to conclude at the 99 percent confidence level that a comment has only a seven percent chance of actually appearing when its submission is greeted by: "This comment is pending approval and won"t be displayed until it is approved".

I just forwarded this ALERT to our IT hardware guys making SURE they DON'T FALL for any nude photos of "Anjolinka".

I actually always have very pure thoughts before her image because she looks too much like one of my nieces.

Well, except for that leather airline stewardess outfit getup as Capt. Franky Cook in "Sky Captain And the World of Tomorrow".

Just looking at her would make my computer crash...not because of anything to do with attractiveness, mind you.

From what I've heard, sleeping with her results in a comparable number of real-world viruses too.

I think the only humanitarian, business-conscious thing Angelina Jolie can do is to pose naked and put a halt to these endless fake picture scams.

It's either catch a virus by checking out her photos online, or catch an STD by sleeping with her.
I can always get a new PC, but herpes is a gift that keeps on giving.

Ah, but the virus infected e-mails don't really contain pictures of Jolie. Now if there was some way she could give you an STD without sleeping with you that'd be a more reasonable comparison. I for one would gladly risk herpes for a night with her but then again I'm STD-proof (or so I believe).

I don't know dude. Thats a toss up. One night with Angelina Jolie but you have to get the herpes? Thats tough. Tell you what, throw in Jaimie Pressly and it would be a deal!

I don't know if anyone at HuffPo ever reads the comments by posters, but please, please, please, NO MORE ANGOLINA!

I'm sick to death of her! Geeeezus Christ! It's like a never ending commericial for her fuckin' awful movies! Eeeenuf already!

And her Dad, Jon Voight -- what a shill for Israel and its agenda. We want to get the fuck outta Iraq, Jon, so shut the fuck up!

Arianna, if you must post stories about this over-hyped bitch, would you please bury them somewhere other than the home page?

Don't click on the stuff that doesn't interest you. Your comments are just ridiculous - like every comment on here about something "isn't news". You clicked on it, and you took the time to comment, and waste space. Just don't click. Or, just shut up.

Why is it that the comment screeners allowed this obscenity-laced post about Angleina Jolee, but censored my comment the other day about not supporting John Edwards? The worst thing I said in that post was that he and Feinstein were both members of the Senate Intelligence Committee prior to the run up to the Iraq invasion, and both knew that their information conflicted seriously with the lies of the Bush administration, and that they both had blood on their hands because they still voted to authorize force in Iraq? Oh, yes, I also called Feinstein "Swine-stein" because she and defense contractor husband were war pigs.

Attractive though Angelina is there is that certain bit or byte that leaves me cold. Any stranger who has my email address is going to be disappointed when I don't even look at their posting. I have a private address and I have the one I gave to Huffington Post(who must have shared it with someone)now I use it as a throw away.

I'm not sure if Huffpost sold or rented my email address as well, because I do know that random number and letter generators can produce a ton of email addresses, but nonetheless it was created specifically for this site and no where else has it been used.

Gotta wonder.

BUT for those people stupid enough to want to believe secret photos are out there and are willing to compromise their computer's security for a really stupid reason, you get what you deserve.

Use a program that will scan emails first. They are out there, just take a few minutes and save yourself hours and hours of grief because you were stupid enough to believe some strange outfit would be willing to send you naked pictures of a star.

Morons.
