Wow, so you have just totally displayed both your inability to read / comprehend but a complete and utter lack of clue or even basic understanding of the fundamentals.
That's pretty hard to do usually. If you had bother to read at all you would under stand that I use a hardware based system that uses deep packet inspection to match traffic in real time against a database of signatures with a specific set of threat responses that are automated. So while you're trusting your host to some piece of crap software that does not generally react in time because once you reach the host it's to late anyway I don't sweat it because the bugs and other threats are stopped at the WAN interface. I realize I've used some big words here like the and "and" for example so I'll cut you some slack. But next time seriously, try to follow along. Next time you try to warn some one please try to under stand what it is you're talking about.
