it could be just a timing issue (e.g. what time the update was scheduled), or even that the virus was in a password protected zipfile (like the one I've got 10 minutes ago), but since I wasn't there when it happened I can't tell why, and I don't have other client that uses it, so I can't really recommend it as a secure solution to my clients. I do give them this option, but I also recommend that they'll have a commercial anti virus on the desktops.
