According to a study just released by security company AVG, Internet users in Russia and Turkey have the greatest chance of being attacked by viruses, with the average chance of a web surfer falling prey to an attack being at one in 10 and and one in 15, respectively.
The security company looked at virus vulnerability in 100+ million PCs in 144 countries during the last week of July of this year. The United States (with one user in 48 being attacked) came in 9th place, the United Kingdom came in 30th with one in 63, Australia was 36th with one in 75 users being at risk.
Sierra Leone, Niger, and Japan lead at the other of the spectrum with a one out of 696, one out of 442, and one out of 404 attack ratio, respectively being the safest of all countries studied.
