    Thanks :)

    Well, we don't allow .zip files to be uploaded in the first place, and we have a 100 kb upload limit as well. Feel free to upload them divided into two .txt files though, coming with a full explanation how you performed your test ( I'll take it, on a fresh Windows O/S install for every nastie as usual) and the usual test enviroments.

    Grin... this has been discussed as well in the past - and the answer remains the same: we do have a solid 100 Gig .RAR database of nasties and pick at random X numbers for our tests on fresh installed Windows O/S's for each one of them. Since we aren't waiting for thousands of emails coming in, we don't publish specifics. Looking at the reviews as well as stats, there's no need for doing so either :) . Besides that: we have only that much time to spare - and we'd rather focus on other issues then answering thousands of emails. Take it or leave it - 98% do take it you might belong to those 2% left.

    Finally: it's not a spitting contest. No problems in any way as for Kaspersky - it's a very nice AV. That said: as fairly all AVs, it can be tricked rather easily. Eugene Kasperky knows - as many VXers. Bottom line: there is no such thing as a "catch it all/full proof" AV.

    regards,
