Was it McAfee or some other security firm that told eager reporters on IDG News? PCWorld maybe? Or on BBC World Service or ...
Recently them admitted that the current way of using anti virus does not work in a good way.
the better way has to be intelligent programs that watch for peculiar activity that could be something odd going on.
That is not what them wrote but my crude retranslatio from them translating from English to Swedish and me back to English. Whoah
So instead of having AV that look for "Signatures" and us updating the Signatures that are always some hours or days too late.
the next versions of AV will be programs that watch for activity that would be not normal for the person using the computer.
May I predict it will not be easy? I mean when one use such programs them warn and warn and warn and one get tired of all the warnings one have no idea what them try to say and one shut it all down getting too annoyed by all the noise it produces?
So what to do?
