I had a wonderful experience yesterday, something that I have not encountered in over a decade!

[QUOTE="Behold Eck, post: 1093951, member: 24044"] Had a compromised download of a sandboxing app about 8 years ago which I installed and then things went a bit weird. No real time AV installed as I was using white listing instead, so I have learnt the hard way. Anyway it wasn`t too severe as I was able to boot into safe mode, run secondary scanners and do a system restore. So it`s real time AV all the way as you just can`t trust them dumbassed users to make the right decision:sick: Regards Eck:) [/QUOTE]
