Interesting read... thanks mrhero

 

What a great article. Thanks for posting it.

 

Well, my view is that you can´t rely on just one engine, that´s why I will never become a fan of an AV/AT/AS, I mean what good is it if it can´t recognize all malware? Just look at Jotti and VirusTotal how many malware is being missed even by the more popular apps. This is a problem that obvious will never be solved so it´s best to scan all of your files at VirusTotal, practice safe HEX and rely on your HIPS.

 

Good read!

 

There is a glitch

awast! vs avast!

You'll see it on the list of other AV vendors

 

Yeah there's quite a few typos in there actually...however, mostly just typos....the grammar is done quite well.

 

It is an interesting article, but has been on the site for at least a year... Some (if not most) of the stuff is not the case anymore.

 

I'would call it a an article with a bit of PR stuff
