Ryan,
I appreciate your position, and it may even be a viable one where 
malware and warez are concerned.  I'm not entirely convinced that it is, 
but at least there are a billion and one AV products out there to try to 
address those problems.  But what about phishing and fraud.  I'd love 
for there to be a better, more viable solutions widely available to end 
users to guard against these things, but there currently aren't any.
