Familiar? Crass? Hell, after all these years, -I- could have written a blurb about only allowing authorized processes to run, in my sleep. LOL

But let's cross our fingers and hope it's more effective than past attempts, recognizing that it's an endless cat-and-mouse game, because the malware writers stay one step ahead; the best you can do with anti-malware is play defense.

That's why I liked tacticalogic's comment #22 about the cruise missile that does traceroute.

Sometimes the best defense is a good offense.

Malware targets the user as a vulnerability, not the OS.
