To say that virus scanners are "responsible" for fixing holes in
user agents puts responsibility in the wrong place.

They sell a product claiming to do so.

The market for anti-virus solutions to fix the security problems of
the predominant software vendor has gotten so large that said vendor
wants to get into that market.

Given a market that size, you expect A/V vendors to be anything other
than sales-oriented? ;)
