What computer systems are immune or unlikely to be attacked by malware? I have a PC and we used Firefox and Windows XP, but in the past two months, dozens of Malware programs have downloaded onto our PC. I have two blocker programs and several programs that will delete some malware, but nothing has deleted this dialer or a few of the other pieces of malware. I have spent numerous days and nights reviving my computer from a comatose state. The dialer malware even opens up Internet Explorer all by itself. So, if possible I am thinking of getting a system that will be unlikely to be attacked. Does anyone know what will work? There must be something out there because all of the libraries I visit are always up and running.

So my conclusion is, it's instead a scheme to just piss people off instead of making money. What do you think?
