• They are never going to fix it and I don't want them too... whitelisting, black listing, certificates, fishingfilter... what's next? If people weren't so dumb they wouldn't get in trouble. Lets face this fact, this "problem" is only so because people are DUMBER THEN ROCKS when it comes to technology.
  
  I see corporations trying to enclose the internet already since they've lost control. You don't get spyware or malware if you don't download it and have secured your network with a decent firewall. The real problem is TCP/IP protocol and the allowing of zombie machines, it has no "intelligence", all one really needs is to be able to shut down connections remotely at the ISP end of infected machines.
  
  You'll never prevent infections because of stupid users but you can stop them from spreading pro-actively. Any attempt to enclose the PC will move people to linux in droves and away from microsoft, thank god we have options. In reply to: "Is white listing going mainstream?"
