Why Eset is slow when adding signatures?

Why Eset is slow when adding signatures?

Its about 3 days that I sent a sample to Eset, and they didn´t added the signature yet. KAV didn´t detected it too, but I´ve sent the sample to them and 1 hour later they added the signature.

 

It may have been determined by Eset to not be a threat...

 

I bet they'll say it was not a "working" sample...

 

But:

"Hello.
New malicious software was found in the attached file.
It's detection will be included in the next update. Thank you for your help.

Haven't you been down this road before? A check of your previous posts suggests this is just a variation of a theme.

 

Yes I just noticed that as well.

 

POS....I ask you to Please take a read of the below post by Anton concerning this very matter. Perhaps knowing a little more than what it apperas you do of how Eset reacts to virus samples will hopefully help deminish some of the threads you have started as of late

Well, too many topics for this issue indeed.
But ESET should hire more employees for analysing samples.

Sometimes they add a sample after one, or two weeks after sending it, and other competitors in just one day.
I understand sometimes the malware is not functional and it's not a real threat but if so why do they still add it after a while?
I don't want to start a fight with my post but hope ESET will improve and add faster signatures.

Thanks for understanding!

 

See the link in Bubba's post.

yes he wrote this as you see... we all know that nod32 add False samples sometimes.

 

Maybe because they actually got a working sample?
