"Your solution, using both AV packages in different manners, seems the best available."

"Thanks for keeping the CL group up to speed on this issue."

some brief virus scanner stats for anyone interested...

when i run a full system scan with Norton, on two partitions combined , a total of about 106,000 files are checked

when i run the same scan with Kaspersky a total of 158,000 files are checked

both AVs have very similar virus database counts, roughly around 66,000 threats
