I have 4 USB sticks which I bring to work and house calls. 2 have malware removal tools on them. ALL 4 are Immunized using BitDefender USB immunize. All 4 have been inserted into infected pc's and into other pc's. Then back to my home pc's. That makes over 1,000+ computers. Guess what...................No malware has ever infected ANY of my USB sticks.

I understand you, but please understand me too.

The purpose of malware isn’t that it’s been detected by user. Its purpose is to keep undetected and that is what many don’t realize.
User can be infected and they do not even know it.
Do you know that there were active malware in the government sector and undetected for several years while Kaspersky hasn’t detected it ?

I do not want to convince you what is better, the choice is yours. It’s on me just at least to try to explain a few thing, and if you are willing to listen, great.
If not, you can listen to yourself and live on yourself experience. But know this: " Two heads are better than one "

You can read all you want and post articles.

What I wrote above did not come from some articles.
This is the knowledge they have shared with me some people - with a lot more understanding of the malware subject matter than me.
