{QUOTE->
The heuristic engine that is the subject of this beta test and that will be integral part of the AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic, version 7 has been completely revised to detect this modified malware with the help of enhanced statistical and geometric analyses.

It is the objective of the new heuristic engine to reduce the number of false alarms. To achieve this, the detection of malware categories such as worms, backdoors, trojans, downloaders, droppers and browser hijackers has been greatly optimized.

Together with the static runtime packer unpacking of the 6.33 engine that is already part of the AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic, Version 7 - beta - the heuristic engine performs code analyses and searches for typical malware functionality.

It's a bit sensitive at the moment but i'm sure they'll improve it till final release.
