Dannii Minogue has bumped off Nicole Kidman as Australia's most dangerous cyber celebrity.

Minogue tops McAfee's 2012 Most Dangerous Celebrity to search for online in Australia.

Other celebrities on the Australian list are Kidman, Isla Fisher and Elle Macpherson.

Cybercriminals follow the latest trends, often using the names of popular celebrities to lure people to sites that are actually laden with malicious software designed to steal passwords and personal information, says the computer software company.

British actress Emma Watson is the number one favourite celebrity bait for cyber criminals trying to lure internet users.

She has replaced model Heidi Klum as the world's most dangerous celebrity to search for online.

When searching for Watson, there's a one-in-eight chance of landing on a malicious site, according to McAfee.

Other international stars to make the international list of the 20 most dangerous cyber celebrities include Jessica Biel, Eva Mendes, Megan Fox and Selena Gomez.

Funnyman Jimmy Kimmel is the only male to make the list.
