Nice placebo there.
30 days after release AV detects ~60% of new malware and variants.
If you already have this you're hosed so patching is an exercise in futility not least because the infection vectors tend to be dodgy plugins rather than the OS itself.
I really do regret that malware course at times like these. It's made me so cynical.
