Spyware Doctor Download Blocks "Drive By" Malware

This spyware doctor download version wouldn't be such an important topic previously but I have just been fighting with what I would call the "drive by" infections of a program called xp malware 2010. The PC Tools site talks about a new technology called browser guard:

Browser Guard stops 'drive-by' downloads of fake AV or malicious files from compromised or exploit websites.

The reason why I believe the experience was such an attack is because the computer that was infected never downloads software for any reason other than microsoft updates and the occasional mcafee update. I am going to get this spyware doctor download on my machine in hopes that it will keep it protected from these malicious downloads.
