You can also read the blurb on San's ISC page also, some vendors say its important, and of course Mcafee discredits it, not that suprises me. But it is an attack vector to consider. Controling the execution of code on your system is the difference between keeping your systems clean and getting 0wned. Whether you look at HIPS/Whitelisting/Blacklisting, otherwise, you are going to have to have more on your systems than just AV to combat todays threat landscape.
