>In all the years I have run AV, I can only think of one time that malware got through. But I've seen it catch more malware than I can remember. In my book, that's a win.

I don't think I've had any kind of infection since maybe something in Win2000 when using Trend way way back.

We do routinely clean malware off machines using Symantec A/V when customers bring them in (we had one last week).

I think the A/V you use is a huge variable in this.
