[QUOTE="notabot, post: 787229, member: 75970"] Most users here through various techniques ( sandboxing, SRP, disabling active content ) have little chance of being hit by malware unless either their whitelisting or sandboxing approach has an exploitable bug or a kernel level exploit is used. Is there anything to be done to avoid kernel level exploits ? I’d expect no, for Linux there seem to be some modules that make it harder but of course no hard guarantees can be given by these modules [/QUOTE]
