Computer expert put an advertisement on the internet offering a free computer virus for everyone willing to have one.
Didier Stevens from Helsinki ran his advertising campaign on Google's Adword for half of the year. As a result of his campaign 409 people clicked on the ad, that said: "Is your PC virus-free? Get it infected here!"
There are several suggestion on people's willingness to download malicious virus said Mikko Hypponen, who conducted the research at data security firm F-Secure. First of all, people must have mistakenly pushed the button, second - curiosity sometimes overcomes natural prudence and thirdly, some people must have been stupid.
In fact, Stevens tried the experiment with no actual virus. He wanted to demonstrate the advertising system can be a good source for everyone including those who have a malicious objective.

Since it is unlikely that you could put your own mouth to your own genitals, it is unlikely that you can give yourself genital herpes from your own cold sores. The virus is spread by skin-to-skin contact with an infected person, at the location where the virus is active, during a time when they are shedding virus.
