We are supposedly the experts and have followed viruses since they first came. We have much more information than the user does, and also exchange information with virus analysts in other anti-virus companies. It is an easy way out, to issue a warning for any new virus in the wild. Using our best judgement, we limit our warnings to 4 to 5 per year, which is less than some competitors issue every month. In any normal situation, we think that new viruses should just go into the regular upgrade packages witout making too much noise about that.
