>fuck this greentext "implying" back and forth

A 0day exploit (in the context of this thread) will almost always certainly deliver a payload (virus). If the payload is prevented from deploying successfully by an antivirus, the attack fails and your system is not compromised. This mitigates the threat of a silent 0day attack, whereas 'common sense' does not.

So wtf are you talking about? Where did he imply that a 0day was a virus? All he said was that antivirus software can help mitigate 0day attacks, which he is 100% correct about. Seems like you're just trying to pick a fight to me...
