I dont think that Antivirus protection has got worse, but that Viruses and Malware in general have got worse, in that it has got more difficult for Antivirus progs to deal with.
You could liken it to the old fashioned Copper on a bike, doing his beat, and now the way crime has gone, look at the fast response vehicles and even armed police required today!
I think Antivirus progs have got much better, but it must be a helluva job to keep on top of it all.
