| "Safer" maybe, but if a rootkit has your name on it, it's only a matter of

A RootKit is just another trojan and if you practice Safe Hex then your propensity for it
getting on your PC is greatly diminished.

One think that most people neglect is keeping up pathes and updates for 3rd part
applications. It is these that are targeted in the vulnerability/exploitation vector that
often laeds to drive by downloads and infections.

Keeping all utilities and applications patched and updated, not just the OS, is a big part
in Safe Hex practices.
