Now that is interesting , seems that a system can be compromised by merely accessing a website, no downloading , no advertisements clicked on. So can there be remote control via a browser . How secure are forums ? If so seems a browser security issue - maybe additional security related extensions required if accessing websites prone to malware scripts or some such ?
Fake sites can be accessed if a user is directed to a fake page due to clicking on a link is the most common
scenario where a Trojan or Keylogger could be installed.
That also occurs when users are directed to a fake pay site and can be easily detected by keeping an eye on
the URL and whether it's padlocked for known safe sites.
