Can't help but wonder if attackers already knew this. There seems to be quite a few bugs found by taviso in antivirus code in the past few months, which has got to either attract attackers to look more closely at it or possibly break their existing exploits. Either way, it's frightening!
Increasingly, my non-computer savvy family members ask me what kind of anti virus they should use. I used to pick one to tell them since I know they aren't as cautious as I am, but I am not sure I have a good answer for them any more. Has AV software reached the point that a lay user is more vulnerable with it than without it?
