Very dangerous. I read that innocent people have been branded as pedophiles
(Pedophiles can exploit virus-infected PCs to remotely store and view their stash without fear they'll get caught) after their co-workers or loved ones stumbled upon child porn placed on a PC through a virus. It can cost victims hundreds of thousands of dollars to prove their innocence.

Their situations are complicated by the fact that actual pedophiles often blame viruses — a defense rightfully viewed with skepticism by law enforcement.

It's like saying my dog ate my biscuits in which case the truth is the dog might have ate the biscuits.
