The problem these days is mostly with java (not just javaSCRIPT) and Flash exploits. When you go to a site, those will load in the background without you doing anything which is the reason why they're so favored by the bad guys. In many cases, you need to click on the ads but not always. At least here on subchat, the google ads are of the TEXT rather than the display variety but a good number of the links that people go to from original posts go to sites that make a lot of money by force-displaying that stuff.That's the problem. And the bad guys make it a point to test their stuff every day to ensure that the antiviruses do not detect it today. As soon as some of the AV's catch up with it they change their code in order to go undetected again. Spy vs spy if you will. The bad guys are making a lot of money and can afford to stay ahead of the AV's. |
