Virus are minor league. Hackers are major league.
Virus are minor league. Hackers are medium league. We ourselves are major league.:B
For myself I use two browsers, Chrome for everyday surfing and Mozilla when things get stuck (printing an online bus ticket for example). In Chrome I put all the security locks possible (Scriptsafe, no Java, Flash...).
After installing all the required programs I cloned the system and use that image to hose the entire system occasionally if things start going weird. No, I never lose my data because it's kept in other partitions. I use Linux (Ubuntu or Mint) on all my computers. It's small (4G at most), so the cloning and restoring are very fast. Firewall rules are also strictly enforced, even though more knowledgeable people said it's not necessary in Ubuntu.
I survive for 5 years so far, much better compared to the Windows period.
