Legitimate Web sites hosting Adobe Flash Player content may be compromised to embed JavaScript that redirects users to a Chinese malware server, says Symantec
There are currently a number of "highly critical" unpatched security flaws in Symantec Mail Security for Microsoft Exchange versions 4.x, 5.x, and 6.x, according to Secunia.
A possible zero day exploit has been discovered for a flaw in Flash thought to have been patched by Adobe a month ago.
Symantec has found active exploit code in the wild for an unpatched Apple QuickTime vulnerability.

Vendors Symantec and McAfee have looked into the future and don't want to become the next Netscapes.

Symantec is preparing to launch a mobile-security suite for Windows Mobile devices that it says will offer the same level of security for handhelds as is standard for PCs.
Norton Internet Security 2007 makes significant gains over last year, including cutting-edge rootkit and behavioral monitoring features found nowhere else, but the overall package could be serious overkill for the average desktop owner.
