Let me point out the following four things:
1. Anti-virus programs are far from being equally good. You haven't
told us which one you use, and unfortunately some of the most common
ones are among the worst.
2. Even if you used the best anti-virus program, none of them is
perfect.
3. Even if you found and used a *perfect* anti-virus program, it was
only perfect when it was last updated. Every day there are new viruses
in the field that weren't out yesterday.
4. Viruses are only one of the kinds of malware out there. To protect
yourself, you need to run both anti-virus and anti-spyware programs.
