No matter how savvy of a computer user you are, your computer will be the victim of malware or a virus at some point.

Pretty bold statement from cnet. What do you guys think?
As long people don't download malware from CNET/download.com servers there is a possibilty they remain clean. CNET still offer malware for download.....

Agreed!
Why people use these 3rd party download offers is beyond me.
I always go to authers site or company's site and if the 3rd party links are affiliated with them I use them, but, only if on the auther/company's site.
