That there was a virus in the Gremlins page is infinitely amusing.

Indeed.

Adblock is better solution. Regular updates too.

There are exploits in pute html/javascript or images too, so, do not be luled to feeling secure if you take care fo worst offenders.

NoScript helps kill the unwanted javascript stuff.

It helps to avoid bad stuff when not even a PDF will open unless it comes from a domain that you trust.

Of course if you are like my friend and just mark everything as trusted there is no helping you... Kind of the internet version of being a whore I guess... Besides not using it anyway.
