    I am not aware of this in specifics.
    
    I was alluding that there would be many technologies.  Today, they will be
    distinguished.  Some time in the future, it will be folded into one product
    and called "AV."

    Jimmy, is this the emerging NAI intrusion prevention product you alluded 
    to earlier? http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,,1356764,00.asp
    
    It looks like a nice product. But then again, I'm an advocate of host 
    intrusion prevention. However, this approach (containment-based 
    intrusion prevention on the desktop) has been tried before: Aladdin 
    eSafe was a product back in 1998 that did containment of applications on 
    the desktop. Aladdin seems to have quietly faded that product away, and 
    then effectively made it hard to search for by naming a completely 
    different product "eSafe" :)
