  Symantec named it Novarg.

  This is becoming a pain. Every AV company creates their own names. So
far, it seems as if McAfee's names tend to be the ones used in the news.

  Why can't the companies create some clearinghouse where a description
can be sent and a name created? If another company sends a matching
description, they'll get the same name.
