Message: <blockquote data-quote="Local Host" data-source="post: 824129">The malware you speak off is basic, compared to the malware that is targetted at organizations, no one is going to waste 0-day and signed malware on Home Users (is a waste of resources, for an attack that will be successful a limited number of times before being detected, especially with all the cloud tech).Is safe to say the malware Home Users run into (even in pirated software) is not only basic, but weeks/months old (in most cases years old), so any basic AV will protect them (just having software updated is enough to mitigate most exploits).Scripts can only do so much as well, their payloads tend to be easily detected, and behaviour blockers (like the ones in Kaspersky) can detect the malicious changes and revert them (just have a look at a malware hub if you want a live example, despite everyone trying to scare you about script attacks).</blockquote>
