    Good one!
    Don't fishing net all have wholes?
    the size of the wholes determines what kind of finish to be caught!
    Guess to avoid Virus, these wholes need to be in nano size or even smaller.

    An AV is more like a gun... to shoot at the attacker (malware) and hope to kill it, only after it shoots you first.

    I'd rather use preventative measures to not get shot in the first place.

    Since we're throwing analogies here, I figured I might as well...

    "AV is like a condom. Some like it...some don't. Either way, enjoy your ride." :p
