[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 72227, post: 807771"] IMO habits are everything. Its not to say that a legitimate site like Amazon couldn't become infected, but the chances are very minimal. What I find the most amusing is when people are asking for a security solution and you have people go, If you are a safe browser than something like WD is fine, however if you do things like download torrents, click on ads, visit sketchy sites, etc..., then your better off using something like Kaspersky. I'm like so your justifying poor security habits as long as you use a 3rd party like Kaspersky? Sometimes I feel like saying, you do know that as good as program like Kaspersky is, it too can be bypassed and it to can miss malware, thus you can still get infected.:emoji_expressionless: Your habits are an important part of your overall security, ignore it and unfortunately one day you will lose that battle.
