McAfee, a company that provides anti-virus and anti-spyware solutions for computers, has come out with the ‘Most Sensational Survey’ for 2014, which reveals that actor Dhanush is the most sensational celebrity in Kollywood.
The survey claims that criminals exploit the public’s fascination of celebrities and lure them to sites loaded with malware. Popular search words such as ‘celebrity name’, ‘selfie’, ‘wall papers’ and ‘videos’ are used by cyber criminals to lead internet users.
A release states that Dhanush is featured on 66 infected websites. The second and third places are taken by Arya, a search on whom returned 59 infected websites, and Nayanthara, who has 58 malicious websites bearing her name.

Actor Siddharth has 43 suspect sites, one less than Kamal Haasan, who, with 44 infested sites, is at number 9 on the list. Actor Silambarasan, Sivakarthikeyan and Shriya Saran are placed above Kamal on the list.
Dhanush has replaced Trisha Krishnan, the winner of last year’s poll. She now shares the fourth spot with actor Suriya, and has 57 infected sites in her name.
