Unless your application is PERFECT sooner or later it will be exploited, and all applications get exploited in the same way.

Oh dear! Your argument seems to be
Because no security application is perfect, it naturally follows that no such application is worthy of implementation and use! Seems a rather irrational argument to me!
No doubt you have achieved learning and/or qualifications, dude, but the simple factor of commonsense seems to be somewhat lacking in there. Effectively, you've told people that, because Security software for use on a Windows machine isn't perfect, they shouldn't bother using any of it.
Now I'm not sure if that was your intention, but it most certainly is the effect of your comments to date. And it's downright silly. While you're busy waiting for Utopia to come along, we'll just keep right on advising people to use the protections which ARE available to them, thanks!
