Thought:
Why can't we using the same type of process provide access to programs and
or sites in the same manor so that the malware infections cannot "block"
because the sites are not permanant?

Additional thought:

Symantec is and always will be "www.symantec.com", as with other sites. 

Low tech addition: How about collecting and publishing a list of helpful IP 
addresses, so that even if the hosts file or DNS is messed with some help might 
still be available?

What you ... call a poor signal-to-noise ratio is the 'glue' that
holds a community together, that lets us recognize one another as
people rather than roles.                            - Anton Aylward
