The best unpacker ever?

[Firefighter]

Hi everyone! According to Rokop,

http://www.rokop-security.de/main/article.php?sid=580

F-secure is the best unpacker ever, when it scores 93%, AntiVirenKit Pro 12 and Kaspersky scored 91%! ::)

I can't read German .. How did McAfee do?

It'd be interesting to see how GAV stacks up in those tests when it's submitted for testing.

"Unpacking" is definitely one of its' strong points. Pete

I suspect, it was only a "lucky hit" by the F-Prot engine (which can _not_ unpack, but might still find a few packed samples by signature), or the KAV engine has been improved in the time which passed from the original Rokop-test until the F-Secure test.
Of the three mentioned AVs, AVK should be the best unpacker, because its RAV engine is strong in unpacking, too. :)

Numbers are the same in German... ;D
McAfee had 66 %.
But remember, that McAfee did overall the best 'unpacking job' in this test: http://members.lycos.co.uk/scheinsicherheit/scanner.htm
(sorry, in German, too :-\ )

GAV is not bad in unpacking, but it can't compete with the best, yet. ;)

To everyone from Firefighter!

Maybe Rokop has come to that conclusion because F-Prot could unpack only 2 packers in that test but these were the only that KAV just couldn't unpack. RAV couldn't unpack any such packers that KAV couldn't! ;D ;D ;D

To Wizard from Firefighter!

I believe you even without those bullshits! ;D ;D ;D

Because I can't German very well, I assumed only that 93% was true on that site,

http://www.rokop-security.de/main/article.php?sid=580

I am only here to keep you awake! ;D ;D ;D

By the way, I believe that all this arquing is very soon passed away, because does anybody believe that Microsoft is coming with to those different av-tests with it's RAV? ;D ;D ;D

We have to get ready only to arquing what's the best beer in the world very soon! ;D ;D ;D
