Well, from reading that comment, I'd say it would be safe to say 'Yes,
they will go away Real Soon Now.'

Does it matter?  *shrug*  Only if you actually used them.  If you did use
them you were out of date by something like a year and a half.

To be quite honest you're better off using a _real_ virus scanner.  Sophos
or something along the same lines is a _much_ better solution.

Cheers!
