    I have all those things. The router, the anti-virus, and still my PCs were infested. Annoyingly, Ad-Aware manages to detect a few things that it can't seem to get rid of. Likewise w/SpyBot. It is not so easy these days to maintain a malware free PC. And once you get hit, recovering is not so easy either.

    So I disagree w/you.

    It, uh, obviously does help though, to keep the kids away.
