Antivirus Software – The Art of Denial

Why av isn’t working any more

It’s pretty clear to most people by now that antivirus software just isn’t doing the job.  Not only can you not tell if it’s a three percent success or a ninety percent success, this measurement is simply impossible to determine. The reasons are also obvious. It is a tool left over from another time, and although it still has its uses, it simply isn’t suited to being your major line of defense.  It’s not up to the job.
