[QUOTE="shmu26, post: 936938, member: 37647"] Driveby downloads are getting rarer and rarer. And even if it happens, it won't infect your system unless you run the file. So it is 99.9% of the time. This assumes you are running a modern version of windows and you receive updates. If you are running XP, then anything can happen. [/QUOTE]
