RE: Consumer Reports Slammed for Creating 'Test' Viruses

  I'll repeat, never, EVER is it warrented to create new viruses for 
 any reason, period.

That's simply your opinion (and that of most AV companies), 
and some of us don't agree.
 
I wouldn't say that it cannot ever be justified, and that is down to
individual choice. But in this instance, it -isn't- necessary.
