    I tested a Hupigon (packed with 6 shells) on VirusTotal and I found that many antivirus software ( like Antivir,AVAST,Bitdefender,CAT,Kaspersky) can't recognize it. They can just report the shell. I tried a Nimda (packed with 12 shells), and I got the same result. Can somebody tell me why ?

    First of all maybe you can try the most recent Kaspersky engine?
    I see 4.??

    Maybe that's the issue why it's reported it like that:D

    I don't see why you say that many scanners can't detect your repacked sample. VT seems to show quite a lot of scanners picking it up.
