微软：2014年世界杯，用户们可要当心

微软发布了明年可能出现的网络安全威胁的年度列表，其中一条直指2014年的世界杯。明年这个盛大的足球盛宴会于6月到7月在巴西举行，届时黑客会以此为诱饵诱使用户下载恶意软件。

微软预计大型网上云服务的中断会在2014年时常发生，同时黑客会发送恶意软件来攻击不受支持的软件（包括Windows XP，微软会在4月份停止支持）。微软也认为“勒索”事件还在明年有所增加，病毒不仅会感染和限制访问用户的个人电脑，同时也会向用户发送信息要求向该程序的开发者寄钱从而放过自己的电脑。

但微软表示，个人电脑用户仍可以有效保护自身免受大部分网络攻击，只要“升级所有的软件，运行可靠的反病毒软件”。
