How does it make you feel that your profession is pretty close to useless?

There are so many ways to get around antivirus detection. Determining whether code is a KNOWN virus--not just a virus but a KNOWN virus--is an NP-complete problem. That means it occurs on a complexity too vast to be solved by any reliable means.

So basically the best you can do is run a piece of code to see if it's obviously malicious...but half the time that won't work either. So really antivirus doesn't protect from a whole hell of a lot.

What do you predict as far as solving these types of problems in the future?
