Nice new features (Registry, File Viewer) in the new Version and new messages:

Looks like detection ability of polymorphic viruses isn´t it? Google found not much related to pe header mismatch only one doc about polymorphic parvo.a virus from 1999.

Probably these messages are nothing unusual(maybe originated in some security apps) but I guess this pe header stuff is also a tactic of old polymorphic viruses. Beside this old method fooled already behavior blockers 10 years ago... I always said it is a very old story, this rootkit stuff is nothing modern it looks like it has a long stealthed history based on old specialized stealth viruses.

How do you get this rootkit on your computer ?

[lucas1985]

As an email attachment or a drive-by download. Your zero tool can kill it.

Yes my zero tool will do it.
Email-attachment is hardly possible, not the way I treat my spam-emails : no opening and immediate delete.
Drive-by download is possible, but I assume that Sandboxie will isolate it and clean it up, when it empties the sandbox.

Eureka!

Finally a Gmer version that WORKS! for me. I like it and best of all it's finally stable. :thumb:

I know that this is maybe only 5%-10% of the real unknown phantom we are hunting. This is no breakthrough it is just a little step toward the right direction.

Malware Type II and III still remains a massive problem where most AVs and ARKs actually have 0 chance.

-{ Quote: "Drive-by download is possible, but I assume that Sandboxie will isolate it and clean it up, when it empties the sandbox." }-As long as the malware doesn´t know that it resides inside your box..... and assumed your sandbox has no issues ;-)

But the latest version also tends to false alarms:

Known/safe apps should not be displayed in red, imho.
