Topic: Security tips without using an antivirus

[Alexalbl]

Here is a nice article that talks about security tips which don't involve an antivirus. I only use Microsoft Security Essentials on my 7 machine as the AV. My favorite Firefox add ons for security include the Web Of Trust, NoScript as mentioned in the article, and Flashblock. Adblock Plus is my favorite add on for pop up and ad blocking.
