When I said "People are far too paranoid", I didn't need examples, but thank you. Don't click "Yes" to the "Are you sure you wish to install this ActiveX plugin?", and don't download something named "Free-WoW-Gold!.exe", or similar. Consider this post a tutorial on how not to download a virus.
I could convincingly say anyone who followed the "don't install anything off the site", no matter whether they blocked scripts, 3 firewalls and a guard dog or they were using IE 7, they would be safe.
You know nothing of keylogging software, please stop posting.
The vast majority of keyloggers are "installed" unbeknownst to the user, by banner ads and flash/java WITH NO WARNING.

While that isn't the case, people being extra cautious is a good thing. So if people want to run a virus scan after every page they visit, I'm not going to talk them out of it. Any on-page "key loggers" won't be found in a virus scan, however.
Except those that get installed by Flash/Java content without warning.
Like the dozens I deal with on a daily basis.
