That's where I submitted our file to yesterday. It's funny that less then 5 minutes ago I received an email that the 
defs had been updated to include this variant.

Submit the sample to Symantec via
http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/submit.html

They've been pretty responsive in the past, though I haven't needed to
submit a sample in over a year.

Does anyone have a contact within symantec?

We have numerous infections of the W32/Sdbot-DHS worm
(http://www.sophos.com/virusinfo/analyses/w32sdbotdhs.html). Most major
AV vendors are updating their definitions to block it, one of them isn't
Symantec. We have created a removal kit but the machines keep being
reinfected since they cannot all be disinfected at once (limited network
access).

We have submitted a virus sample last week and have contacted our sales
rep neither are giving a helpful response. Aside from cutting over to
sophos AV client, Any ideas?
