Its not a company I work for its a tool we use. You can upload a file and check 
it against all av pretty sad coverage because no av ever gets it all or even 
close

Is VirusTotal the company you work for?  What does this company 
do?  Can I use your site to see if my AV is keeping up with new threats?

I'm looking at the charts, but I don't understand them.

http://www.virustotal.com/xhtml/graficas/grafica4_en.html

In this one, it seems to suggest that in the last seven days, 16,986 
viruses were missed by at least one AV and only 344 were caught by 
all of them.  That number doesn't seem useful to me - I'd be 
interested in seeing how many were missed by all the AVs.
