Well, yes. Unless the AV is designed in a way that shows it doesn't increase the risk, it's just snake oil. If MS had taken a harder line then at least hundreds of millions of people would have had faster computers... And arguably safer ones. But it would be hypocrisy for MS, given they gave us IE, ActiveX, DLLs, VB macros, etc. Most third party firewalls are just GUIs using the OS API for filtering, not parsers written in C running in the kernel. |
