Absolutely the most powerful antivirus?

[QUOTE="Zorro, post: 842298, member: 80312"] Hello. I think the most powerful antivirus is your own brain. For example, no antivirus will give you 100% protection against phishing. Yesterday I went to a social network and a message came from my friend asking me to help her win the photo contest and vote for her photo. And a link to the site with a vote. I opened the link in another browser, the antivirus (Kaspersky free) did not react to this in any way. There were two photos on the site - my girlfriend and some unknown girl, and my girlfriend was 4 votes ahead of the vote. I clicked the Vote button and I was immediately thrown to some unknown site where there was a large form with supposedly authorization in a social network so that the vote counted. The design of this authorization page immediately shows that it is phishing. But Kaspersky, in spite of the function of heuristic analysis of pages for phishing, did not react in any way. Only an attentive user would figure it out. That's why I say - the best antivirus, this is your own brain :) Well, a regular antivirus as a program in the system is to help you :) [/QUOTE]
