I think that very statement shows a complete misunderstanding of the nature of fighting viruses and malware. It's not going to happen because it's not possible. Face it, if you want to keep your computer secure and you keep it hooked up to the Internet, the bottom line is that the security of your system is your responsibility. THAT IS FACT. You can either face that face or face malware. It's up to you.
