The solution could be a virtualized operating system, which has a control layer between the operating system and the
hardware abstraction layer. Changes to data could be non-persistent in the first step, and only written to the hdd
after a heuristic check of the changes and a interaction with the user.
In the end, the problem is on one side the os vendor bothering endusers with stupid stop signs that can be disabled
with a simple click, and on the other side the user again, clicking on every accept button like a woodpecker.

Gödel and the limits of logic
Quote:
Another result that derives from Gödel's ideas is the
demonstration that
no program that does not alter a computer's operating
system can detect
all programs that do. In other words, no program can find
all the
viruses on your computer, unless it interferes with *and
alters* the operating system.
