Story: Outrage at Symantec's OS X claims
This is inline with ISS reporting a vulnerability in McAfee's old scan engine. You can't seriously tell me that has nothing to do with Gartner naming McAfee in the leader quadrant of the Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Antivirus, January 2005. I find it odd that a competitor would release outdated information (McAfee addressed this issue back in November of 2004) right about the time when a Gartner positiong like that would greatly reinforce the better product's stand in the industry. Shame on ISS for stooping to such a new low. What's next? Will they start announcing the vulnerabilities in Symantec's 6.x and 7.x products?
