Despite all this, I've _never_ had a virus or any kind of malware. My only system failures have been the occasional result of a RAM or hard disk failure. So either I'm doing something terribly right, or you all are doing something terribly wrong.
I haven't had a virus either -- that I know of, which is an important distinction -- but I'm spooked by the number of people who have. The numbers are astonishingly high. Reports like this makes me very uncomfortable:
"Across the globe, the average number of PCs hit by malware now stands around 59 percent, an all-time high for the year. Among 29 countries tracked, the U.S. ranked ninth with slightly more than 58 percent of its PCs infected. Taiwan hit first place with an infection ratio of 69 percent, while Norway came in lowest with only 39 percent of its PCs attacked by malware."
