Yeah, it’s wild to see how malware’s evolved. I remember those early days too—funny popups, weird toolbars, nothing like today’s attacks. Ransomware and things like advanced phishing really changed the game. If you want to dig deeper, cybersecurity has some breakdowns of major malware trends and how they’ve impacted people and companies. The biggest thing I’ve learned is that even basic defenses (like backups and software updates) can help, but attackers keep finding new ways in. I try to keep my own setup as clean as possible, and never open anything I’m not expecting.
