I assume most of you have heard by now (or will) or that by the time I get home (can't access my ISP's SMTP server from work, and I avoid using the work one ;) ), but Symantec's made quite the mistake. Specially designed UPX'd executables will be executed by various Symantec products (not only AV client -- but stuff for servers as well; Solaris, OS X, Linux, Windows) rather than stopped.
