Hello!

You can find the information how fast the AV companies have reacted with a 
solution against Bozari.A/B, Drudgebot.B, IRCBot!Var and Zotob.A/B in an Excel 
sheet (18 KB ZIP file) which is available at <http://www.av-test.org>. 
Furthermore we have checked how many AV products havn't required an update in 
order to deal with these threats.  

We have covered the following worms and variants:
- Win32/Bozari.A (10 outbreak reports)
- Win32/Bozari.B (1 outbreak report)
- Win32/Drudgebot.B (3 outbreak reports)
- Win32/IRCBot!Var (2 outbreak reports)
- Win32/Zotob.A (4 outbreak reports)
- Win32/Zotob.B (3 outbreak reports)

We used the following rules for the formatting (XLS sheet):
- Italic font = proactive/heuristic detection (in general: a detection without 
updates)
- Bold font = first detection (first name) of the worm
- Normal font = subsequent names used for the worm (e.g. second name, third 
name...)

Two magazine reviews have been published which are based on this data:
- PC Magazine - heuristic test results: 
<http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,1850847,00.asp>
- PC WELT (Germany) - response times: 
<http://www.pcwelt.de/news/sicherheit/118264/index.html>

Of course, we know that the problem related to MS05-039 is not primary an AV 
problem, but something for (Personal) Firewalls, IDS/IPS systems and a better 
patch management. :-)

cheers,
