[QUOTE="Zorro, post: 820634, member: 80312"] I am certainly not an expert, but I heard about the drive-by download attacks, when malicious elements (scripts, as I understand it) are quietly download from the pages of hacked sites, and then the malware itself is loading directly. I don’t know the whole mechanism, I can’t judge it, but an antivirus can detect and prevent this. Of course, you can configure the browser very tightly and configure the system very tightly, and then you can use the system without antivirus, perhaps, but how convenient will such a rigid configuration be? I think it will suit not all ordinary users, for whom it will be easier once to set up an antivirus for Internet Security class well, and to get protection from such threats. [/QUOTE]
