[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 1114443, member: 32260"] Another one: [URL unfurl="true"]https://dataprot.net/statistics/antivirus-statistics/[/URL] So, the average Defender user may expect 1 malware per 2 years. Assuming the 5% infection rate in the wild ([COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)][B]10 times higher than in AV testing labs[/B][/COLOR]), the average user can be infected 1 time per 40 years. A happy-clicker can probably be infected a few times in a lifetime. Edit. Some information is outdated and can be misguiding, like the claim that AVs can detect only 25% of malware. In fact, this information is related to 0-hour malware in 2010 and was discussed in one of my previous posts. [/QUOTE]
