AV Industry and its problems
« on: November 30, 2005, 02:12:31 PM »
Hi forum members,

A good AV product on your machine is a must. But to be fully protected you need a multi-layered defense, fully updated and patched OS, System Monitoring System, safe surfing habits and no script enabled for non-trusted sites, blocking of spyware sites etc. etc. About the problems of AV vendors, read this article by Kaspersky's:

Anyone like to comment.

Cybersecurity is more of an attitude than anything else. Avast Evangelists.

Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!
