Is it possible for a virus get through the GWGuardian scan?

When a new virus is released on the internet, there is a small window of time when the virus scanning manufacturers have not yet created the virus ‘definition’ which is used to detect and delete the virus from the infected e-mail. During this time, the virus scanning software will not recognize the new virus. GWGuardian is regularly updated throughout the day with the latest virus definitions. This will help minimize the chance of viruses entering the system.
