Anybody who got hit with this Trojan was stupid enough to ignore this basic rule of safety and they got what they deserve.
If only this were true. Many many legitimate web sites are compromised every day due to programming flaws that allow the bad guys to alter their code and plant malware. Big corporations run regular security audits on their web sites to try to detect these coding flaws, but they aren't always done for every web site update. Smaller companies rarely run these audits. So avoiding porn sites is hardly a guarantee that your computer is safe.
