AVG detects it on my comp occassionally but norton 2003 doesnt. its strange because its meant to be a "friendly virus" because it tries to update your computer

So if DLLHOST for example is stopped does this mean it was trying to get in but the virus killer stopped it? When I check running processed DLLHOST is not there on the disk.

Its not too bad on a single computer but get it on a reasonable sized network and it brings the whole thing to a halt fairly quickly IIRC
