[QUOTE="blackice, post: 1077561, member: 79035"] Statistically insignificant for two reasons. A) That's a small list, B) More PCs use MS Defender than anything else by a lot. So it is highly likely that the most victims of any attack that doesn't have sigs yet would come from Defender. I'm not 'defending' Defender here. Just pointing out that all that screenshot suggests is anecdotal at best. [/QUOTE]
