2005 38% more flaws than 2004

Hi forum folks,

With the WindowsMetafileFix waiting there were some more flaws in 2005, not all that critical, read here:

Service Pack2 has made our life a lot safer, Virus- and Worm threats can be tackled thanks to good security programs, spyware silently installed on our machines is still a big concern, because a lot of computers if scanned have an average of 30 spy- or adware programs running on it without people aware of it.

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)!
