Wow that's a crazy malware, seems like the latest thing from these hackers is to ask for a ransom to gain access to your files/device again. Just last week my iPad 2 was hacked and put in lost mode with a passcode I didn't know and had a message in Russian which translated to email this address to regain access. The wifi was turned off so I couldn't turn off lost mode from iCloud. I was forced to restore it from iTunes on my PC.

Robust antivirus software (the kind you pay for) should also be able to detect the Angler exploit kit's presence on websites.

Not all free AV software products scan for malicious URLs, and of those that do, not all can adequately defend against code-changing malware or zero-day malware: http/www.tomsguide.com/us/best-antivirus,review-2588-5.html
I don't know about Opera but the article says this hole was patched by MS in 2013. If you haven't patched after that long, this is really on you.Thank God - for a minute there I thought that I might be vulnerable, but then I saw it only affects Opera and IE.
Sandboxing isn't absolute either, buddy. A security hole is a security hole. Search for "sandbox exploit" and look around. If you don't patch that's on you. If it's a zero-day... well like the article said you should have additional security and use good practices.why do people allow web browsers to operate outside of a sand box... all of these things should be sandboxed... how often does this crap happen anymore?
this browser can not execute files outside of the browser, the browser can't edit files outside of itself.... how hard is that.
windows takes 20-50gb to install, i dont care the resources necessary to make browsers sandbox only, just that it NEEDS to happen.
Good luck with that.We should start hacking off fingers of these people...
