It’s sad, but no AV is able to keep track of the flow of Windows malware. New vulnerabilities are found every week. They are exploited within hours by bandits. No protection software can keep up.

Antivirus software is protecting against yesterday’s threats only.

If you are a business and you access your bank account from a Windows PC that is not entirely dedicated and isolated from your network, you WILL get infected by malware.

Use a Mac or a Linux desktop.

Why haven’t I been impacted then...been online for years with windows.

Quit spreading FUD about things...as if Mac or Linux don’t have issues.
