Malware, viruses, etc. are all user errors. If you know your shit you don't get any.
edit: Sorta like STD's.
Yes, yes I'm back.

Well oracle just recently! fixed a big hole in Java, so that you could get a virus, just by visiting the wrong side, or if they were able to inject their java code into an ad somewhere on an else trusted webpage! To be honest, I'm always surfing with disabled java.
In opera enter the following in your adress bar and press enter:
about:plugins
And disable anything that you find unneccessary (I left the plugin for windows media player, esn sonar for battlelog and shockwave flash. Blocked all the other crap incl. java).
