Hollywood star George Clooney avoids searching his name on the internet - because he doesn't like the "angry people" who inhabit cyberspace.

The Michael Clayton actor was shocked to discover "brutal" comments about himself online a few years ago, and vowed to stay away from the web as a result of the negative experience.

He says, "A few years ago, I went to check out this website that someone had talked about. There's like, a thousand people sitting in dark rooms trashing you. Brutal! You're like, 'Wow, dude'. You see way too many angry people (on the internet). I remember getting off the machine and thinking, 'Never, ever again'. I'd rather live in my own happy, quiet world where I think that everyone is nice."
