ByteVerify.exploit

it seems that nod32 does not detect "byteverify.exploit":

someone posted a thread about a website where they encountered "byteverify" exploit:
http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12057018~mode=flat

the webpage in question is (if you are using an old, outdated, unpatched version of ms virtual machine, do not go to the website):
http://.

i could be wrong about nod32's not detecting byteverify.exploit..

Please don't post links to sites with viruses or exploits--Ron

 

Looks like the problem was that if you did a search, "byte" is spelled differently than on nods site... "byt"...honest mistake....

 

i used to use etrust ez av, and it would throw up alerts occassionally for "byteverify.exploit".. i reinstalled etrust to see if it would detect the exploit at the cited website and throw up an alert, but i had the same results with it that i did with nod32.. with ms virtual machine off, the page loads, no alerts; with ms virtual machine on, the page does not load, and no alerts..

oh well..

i am not seeing a search feature at the nod32 website..

 

I can't get either link to load with my security settings.

Cheers

 

I went to the website in question in IE6 with Java enabled, and NOD32 caught the infected file through IMON and terminated the connection. So no worries

 

thanks, quexx88.. that is good to hear..

 

Redwolfe_98 - how are your settings configured....

the page in question was indeed blocked as quexx88 pointed out - but I was initially unaware as imon - http - actions were set to automatically deny - changing them to "display warning with action selection" will yield the familiar red NOD32 box on viewing that particular page.

Got it, IMON popped up and warned me of multiple infections. I was relieved.

IMON settings on default, except I have Advanced Heuristics enabled and normal heuristics set to Deep.
