[QUOTE="Practical Response, post: 1082317, member: 109138"] You are twisting things in an unhealthy way. I have stated that average users will not know how to use advanced softwares that misconfigured will expand attack surfaces. I have stated layering applications "go look through the ridiculous amounts of software in some users systems in config thread" add more bugs potential issues and expand the attack surface. I have stated just using a 3rd party suit without habits is not the answer, cant protect a user from themselves I also stated quite sometime back that a balance of security, habits and contingencies is what's called for. Helping average users learn to become aware. I have stated social engineering is a big reason why, as it accounts for most "real world" infections. A look through the help section will confirm this. On a side note I've also asked, many user here before, that have spent time in the forum, the one thing they probably all have in common. That is most of them have not seen an infection in a long time, why, because they have learned to become aware. They certainly are not all running the same security that's secretly saving their behinds. Is this clear and concise enough. [/QUOTE]
