 I would agree ...moreover

 I would agree ...moreover this should make you more happy..
This happens with any antivirus..I have seen reports where only Symantec detects but none of the other big names detect.
But this happens vice-versa as well..

um Bijay, if you'd submitted

um Bijay, if you'd submitted the virus to Kaspersky they'd have detected it too.

It a real weak victory for Symantec to detect something only after you've submitted the file to them.
