I have to second what Scott states here... I submitted an infected file to Mcafee, Trend, CA, and Symantec on Tuesday night/ Wednesday am.
I have heard back from all but Symantec. I have the new definition files catching the virus in all but Symantec's products...Mcafee was the quickest in getting me the extra.dat, followed by CA, and Trend. I have heard absolutely nothing from Symantec and their latest definition files are not catching the virus yet... Don > Norton's a different story. They are the *only* AV company that has rigged > their product to break when used with automated products (even if you try > running it from a batch file or script, if it sees a virus, it will tell > you that the file is virus-free!). And > http://itmanagement.earthweb.com/columns/executive_tech/article.php/3316511 > shows that they aren't really worth considering (out of 23 AV products > tested, Norton (Symantec) came in 2nd to last in the amount of time to come > up with new virus definitions). > > Norton has excellent marketing, but is far from the best AV program. > > -Scott --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude Virus] To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
