Viruses are part of an evolution.
We will never know what is happening, and who is realy making viruses, but notice, the av companies depend on the fact that there are new ones out. Viruses are (almost) never written to attack anti-virus programs (even though that would make the most sence).
Rivals to Microsoft only get to critisize MS when new security flaw is found (there is no money in making viruses that attack Linux). There are av programs that don't match to definitions, but just look for virus behaviour, no updates needed. Pity those avps are'nt offered with new computers.
I will only worry about viruses when they become AI (NOT that far away!).
