Thanks, though I felt a bit of a fool

Could be worse. My friend fell for the dumbest trick in the world. He used to play Runescape and someone ran up and said "The game blocks your password". So he typed in his password into chat...

I've read this article and it's been debated over at the Vista forums. My opinion is that the article is flawed and uses an unsupportable hypothesis to justify it's conclusions.

i use ie and havnt had a virus sense running vista, but i think thats more to do with being an experienced internet user and knowing what im doing.

Check the Security Forums on Vista64. If you haven't had a virus it has not much to do with experience. A good AV, regular scans for malicious software and regular backups are the best protection. Experience isn't a factor at all, luck and good fortune can play a part though!

Exactly - with the number of hijacked banner web ads as well as the still not entirely fixed SQL injection hacks that are being purveyed through out the net, not running an AV / AM / something means you're been lucky.
Part of that luck in Vista can be attributed to UAC, but there are more than a handful of Trojans and rootkits out there int the world that are UAC sensitive....
