Dan,

Nothing is perfect :-( . Here see enclosed my recent e-mail to  Symantec
(I am still waiting to hear from them). Though NAV2000 detected the virus
we had on the List lately. By the way, I heard other comments that
TrendMicro software is very good, indeed. And it's free (online version).
What it doesn't do sometimes (from my own experience) is removing
detected viruses. Anyway, check out

Cheers, Vitaly
