Has anyone considered that antivirus is a farce that does absolutely nothing...
Other than make money, maybe I'm slightly cynical about the whole situation, but think about it for a minute
AV development companies... Who sell AV software... But if the AV was any good, the malware/badware/virus creators would be left without a job and with no money.. Which little script kiddie with no money is going to try and get past massive companies like Symantec, AVG to put some adverts on some old womans computer... No one... That's who!
Then you realise that Symantec and AVG would quite like to keep selling AV software... Which apparently their AV software can fix everything <24 hours after the threat has happened..
Oh wait, this sounds a little too familiar?! It's a massive loop of money of AV companies selling software...
I've never seen AV software actually do anything about genuinely harmful code, just blab on about useless shit!
Stop giving money to Microsoft and helping their monopoly by refusing to learn anything new and go and get some free, open software in your lives, bit of a learning curve, but would stop all of this essentially money laundering business quite quickly!
