I've heard that Compaq has built a pretty good one, where a support Rep. can
take a look to see if the problem is what you think it is when you visit
their Web site with the option enabled. Several of the malicious trojans
do IRC outbound for an open control mechanism on a channel. Dunno what your
measure of "really good" is, but they all fall under "good enough to allow
actual damage" as far as I'm concerned.
Other than that, great list.
