76%?? Holy cow! It is unreal in this day and time that there are that many
people out there that not running av!
My brother in law told me once, "my friend, who *knows computers* (eye roll)
told me that an antivirus isn't necessary." I looked at him, with my mouth
hanging open and said, "first of all, he knows squat about computers, trust me,
I've seen yours, second, don't send me any mail from your home address until
you install an antivirus or I'll just start bouncing it back to you until you
do."
Idiots.. the world is full of them, eh.

I had to put one a workstation a couple of years ago. An employee was playing
on the Internet way much, and the manager wanted to know where he was going.
He was not only wasting time, but downloading illegal music, and they needed
proof of what the was doing. He had sense enough to delete history and
cookies, and this was the easiest way to follow him around.
Keyloggers are are simple and easy to get on a computer, and since they hardly
take any resources, you will not know they are running, unless you have some
way of detecting all running processes. A key combination brings up the
interface and that is the only way to stop it or uninstall it, other than
detecting with a spyware app.
On the news this morning I heard that %76 of users don't even have antivirus
running, or it is not updated. Maybe its about time users like this should be
at least held partly responsible for all the nasties spread around the WWW.
Just my IMHO.
