<From my understanding everybody and their uncle makes an AV softwaresolution.>
But no one makes AV software fitting the description of Exobox’s; assuming their description from years back still holds. If anyone did, then why would worms and virus continue to be a problem?
The AV is the software I’m interested in seeing developed.

< I'd rather be in the position of being the ONLY one doing something really needed. The data leaking stuff fascinates me... as I do believe that this is going to continue to be a growing need.>
Someone said basically the same thing a few days back; that the potential for data leak software exceeded the potential for the AV software. I’m not in the software security business so my insight is limited, but this is how I see it.
If every business in the entire world was a potential customer for the data leak software (which they aren't), that would amount to X-number of sales.
With the AV software, you would have these same businesses as potential customers (they have computers), but you could also add in the computers of every other tom, dick, and harry on the planet. I fail to see how the potential of the two types of software even come close to which is most important to sales in the long run.
