Symantec's evil is explicitly based on Microsoft's evil. Meaning that if Microsoft didn't suck so much, Symantec wouldn't have any excuse to suck so much. Not that they would suddenly be saintly if Microsoft died, but their business model would definitely change. They're like somebody who has found the one ring - they weren't always evil. I have found SARC to be a valuable resource in the past - they do a good job cataloging virii and worms and trojans and hoaxes. But with the one ring of Microsoft, even good is turned to evil.
