This is largely a user problem now. I haven't caught a single problematic download on my Windows 7 box.
- josephlord 12y agoSee recent Lenovo issue. It isn't a user problem but an ecosystem problem starting with the OEMs and the general discovery and distribution of software.
- snowwrestler 12y agoIt's also a user problem on Macs--and really, it always had been. I use and like Macs but they've never been invulnerable.
- goalieca 12y agoI wouldn't be so confident. Most viruses now are pretty stable and silent. They don't crash your system and they don't eat up all your bandwidth. They'll get you when you log in to your banking website or they'll use you as part of an attack on someone else.
