IMHO the App Virtualisation of a Anti-Virus is not a good fit, AV requires a close coupling with the OS to be completely effective, App Virt isolates the virtualised application from the OS and can not affect it. so, by that statement a App Virt'ed Antivirus package would only be functional with in the application virtualisation bubble. and not for any other applications or more importantly the OS
