Virus database: 312

Added detection of Worm/Kabak, I-Worm/Woff, I-Worm/Winpat, I-Worm/Upering,
Worm/Gotorm, Worm/Binlad, Worm/Sany and new variants of I-Worm/Dumaru,
I-Worm/Cult, trojan Downloader.Dluca, trojan IRC/BackDoor.SdBot.

Still hard to get the update through the online update tho. Need to
download the update from the site.

Jeez 3.8 Mb !! If your still on "Dial up" this is no laughing matter.
Nod32's update for today 21.6k, another reason as to why it's so
popular. )

My apologies. But at 1.6Mb they're still ridiculously
huge compared to other vendors products.
Maybe V7 are a lot smaller and AVG are trying to coerce
V6 users to use their commercial product. Can anybody
confirm that V7 updates are a lot smaller than V6 ?
