Hello !
Can anyone point me to a newsletter which will send updates as new viruses
emerge and details on how to disinfect them? The Symantec newsletter arrives
every month but I feel that's too infrequent!

Since you mentioned Norton, have you looked at DeepSight Analyzer,
their product for tracking and reporting incidents (infections,
intrusions, etc.)?
As for daily(?) updates, be careful what you wish for. I've seen a
number of roughly weekly bulletins as well as as-needed alerts. You
were not very clear on what sort of information you were seeking, but
try signing up for several antivirus vendor bulletins.
Here are some ideas to get you started.
Take a look at
www.securityfocus.com (home of bugtraq) for roughly 30
mailing lists and archives.
