That's why free products (from AVG to the open source ClamAV project) can perform so well, and that's why the mainstream commercial offerings (McAfee and Symantec) are such festering mounds of bloated feces, and that's why the slightest little change in code lets malware continue to slip by the overwhelming majority of "detectors".
Yeah, it's a losing proposition because one person's trojan is another person's remote control feature, but that's not much excuse for today's shoddy state of affairs. When in doubt, just blame Windows.
