morrowinder, when the NX support was released by AMD I recall reading that about 40% of viruses are spread using the buffer overflow technique. I don't have those articles handy.

I know that but are those buffer overflow viruses? That is ONE way of many that you can write a virus.

This may be what you meant, but let me clarify just in case. Your statement should read:

I'm sure that when everyone is using NX protection that the 40% number will drop drastically. :)
