Why should I blame the AV product. Both problems could have been fixed by the users going to the WINDOWSUPDATE site and pulling down the critical updates. That's not too hard is it? The users just have to open IE, click on Tools -> Windows Update, then when the site pops up, down load the critical updates. They don't even have to check the box, just hit the big blue arrow that says DOWNLOAD, then reboot at the end.
For all the griping people do at/about Microsoft, they couldn't have made it any easier to keep a workstation up to date on basic security fixes.

Most are BadTrans or SirCam. One would think that these home users would have received a clue or two from all the news coverage of each outbreak. Ack... It disgusts me.
