No. Antivirus companies know the risks involved when dealing with Computer Viruses and the potential dangers of viruses getting out in the wild. Antivirus companies do not hire people who've made viruses, and the whole concept of antivirus companies creating viruses is simply a myth, urban legend and conspiracy theory
