A few handy tips to stay safe online: Never give your password out to strangers, pick passwords that are difficult to guess, and avoid having the same password for lots of different accounts. Otherwise, you might end up with one of these mischievous fiends, rummaging around in your precious files: a virus!
A virus does make for a pretty cool skin though - at least when reimagined in Minecrafter form by artist Henkkuainen.
“I think I got the idea for the skins while doing stuff with the firewall and control panel on my computer,” says Henkkuainen, who captured the destructive and devious nature of the virus in this stealthy skull-faced skin.
“The armour is meant to look sneaky with a little cape in the back, because it's trying to sneak in the computer without being noticed,” explains Henkkuainen. “There are also some corrupted red ‘files’ with green ‘files’ on the back of the head.”
To combat this villain, Henkkuainen also made two other skins: an antivirus and a firewall - both handy things to have on your computer. An antivirus program will scan your computer for unwanted guests and eliminate them, while a firewall helps to stop them infiltrate your device in the first place by monitoring and controlling the incoming and outgoing network traffic.
