You will still need an anti-virus to remove the virus from your system. CSA
is good in preventing all those day zero worms and virus from doing harm to
your system, it will detect their behaviour and kind "contain" their
activities, but you still have a virus in your sysem. The CSA will be the
only protection you will have until the anti-virus industry play a catch up
with the new "virus" or "worm". Once they do, they will include its
signature in the next anti-virus update and that is only when you can get
ride of the virus from your system.
