It's a sad day when such a thing as malware ca be referred to as an industry. It seems all too convienent to find 'Fix Your PC' ads on sites that are less than respectable. I am also sick of stuff being planted on MY PC without my consent. It's my property. There are solutions though. I recently beta tested a product called Aura from Atka Software LLC. It really takes a whole new approach to the malware 'industry'. It assumes all downloads are bad and does not allow ANY AT ALL to occur. Using Aura there is no need to wait for the security firms or others to identify something as malware. It just blocks it all unless you tell it not to. It really is worth checking out... I was just a beta tester but now I am an owner and user of the product. Check it out at GetMyAura. Try it... It will play a big role in stopping the malware industry. There is also a review here.
