Av`s are a reative technology, the malware authors are allways one step ahead. Allthough getting malware is easy if you go looking, it`s not something that is as prevalent as it was say when XP was young. UAC allthough not primarily designed as a security tool is an excellant addition in helping system level malware from being installed. Again back to the don`t just click OK to everything scenario!
