Malware doesn't only spread by voluntary downloading and executing unknown software.

There are more than enough drive-by-downloads you catch on legitimate and well known websites. What are you supposed to do there? Stop using your computer for 4 or 6 weeks until Windows or your webbrowser gets an update?

More likely you will trust that an anti-virus which gets updated several times a day will prevent these kind of exploits until they get fixed by software updates.
