As per my knowledge virtual machine is an absolutely a safer side to be used.when we are browsing then some bad part also takes place like some harmful viruses,malwares etc will try to enter your system which plays with you in a nice manner.No matter whatever steps you took to avoid these interesting things but if you visit the site which is not safer for your system then those friend of yours will enter in your system. so here comes the use of virtual machineSpecialUsing a virtual machine is safer or not???

LeoI agree with you but Virtual machine becomes problem for your original system when you add a third party virtual hardware. It also adds to security risks, better way is never install third party virtual hardware and virtual PC is 100% safe.

SpecialWhat kind of problems can i suffer??
will it be a really serious one? -
Kaustubh KatdareA virtual PC is just like any other machine. I don't see any special reason for it to be 'safer'. Of course a VM can be hacked and compromised if it does not have enough security.

Of course problems can become serious. Most of the third party virtual hardware program codes are written by criminal Hackers. On name on virtual hardware accessing resources, it can try to get info about your original system or even run malicious code on your PC. Anyhow even when you access Internet via Virtual PC there is no way to hide that your PC is virtual so if the intruder knows this, he can send a malicious code to your PC and add a Virtual hardware keeping you unknown about this activity. And once virtual hardware is added, your original PC becomes prone to all those things to which your Virtual PC is prone to. Therefore Anti Virus programs are even needed on Virtual PC.SpecialWhat kind of problems can i suffer??

callyDI think nothing can break out of the virtual machine and damage the host. The worst that can happen is you’ll end up with a trashed virtual machine.

You are mistaken at this point buddy. Virtual Machine is safe until you know how to use it in safe manner and some intruder is not going to steal information from you.callyDI think nothing can break out of the virtual machine and damage the host. The worst that can happen is youâll end up with a trashed virtual machine.
