Avast + AVG + NOD32 + CCleaner = No Viruses EVER in your life

Errm, I have CCleaner but it doesn't clean viruses.
And those tree anti-virus together are in a HIGH chance of entering in conflict and fuck your PC.

Usually through advertisements that automaticly unblocks itself from noscript apparently.
It's no joke either.

Viruses can come in through open ports and through hacker attacks... so it makes sense.
I got open ports due to games, so... happy face.
I am not scared if I get viruses, that's why I get them haha.


I know advertisements can sometimes run scripts which download annoying shit such as fake antiviruses which is why I use AdBlockPlus on Mozilla Firefox.

Other than that, I stay away from Adult sites (Porn, etc.) or any website which isn't very popular or well known (same goes with files and stuff)

Rodrigo and Refresh are right. You should not run more than one AV software ona PC at any one time being that their scanning engines might conflict, their OS monitoring methods might conflict, it will dramatically slow dow the speed of your PC and the gain is highly minimal in comparison to the resource cost.

Doberman is right as well... Kinda... Most attacks are now through various browser and extension API jacks. Using firefox with the NoScript extension (configuration requires users to be intelligent), you're pretty safe from a direct attack, but you still flood out information about who you are and what you're doing. To cover the trail, add the User Agent Switcher extension so you can stop your browser telling everyone what you're using and use firefox in combination with TOR to finally make your surfing safe and anonymous. Adding AdBlock Plus just keeps additional solicitation at bay, which is nice.

Just a question though...

How many of you guys actually know what processes usually run on your PC? Do you know them by name and location and do you know what common dlls you will have loaded into these? This is pretty much like saying "If you came home one day and something was missing, would you notice?" For most people, when it comes to PC, they see all "houses" the same and assume because the door's the right colour and the windows match that it must be their house.

If you get to know what you're usually running, you'll be amazed at how much more you will learn about your PC, your PC will function quicker as you eliminate excess processes and most importantly, you'll notice when something new turns up that you weren't expecting...

Keep in mind, a virus on a PC is like a virus in the real world. It's not looking to kill the host, but keep the host functioning so the virus can continue to breed and spread. Virus makers want the viral action to be hidden so that it keeps going, not so it screws your PCs. These "Anti-malware-I'm-a-scammer" software outfits only murder your PC to try scare you into paying. After a reinstall, the offending malware is usually gone and the user walks away with a life lesson.
