anyone tried a spycar test on this

Has anyone try out the spycar http://www.spycar.org test to how the ESET Smart Security Suite fairs

 

Re: anyone tryied a spycar test on this

ESS nor NOD32 is not a behavior blocker, it won't detect a thing unless it's an actual piece of malware.

 

Re: anyone tryied a spycar test on this

but has anyone tried the test on ESS to see how it does

 

Re: anyone tryied a spycar test on this

what is the point of doing a behavior test on something that is not designed to detect behavior?

those kinds of tests and apps that use it only lead to false positive, thus making the whole thing pointless.

 

Re: anyone tryied a spycar test on this

well one is to see how is does and Eset says they do both spyweay and virus so it would not heart to try it out on just to see out it scores out on it it wont heart anything

 

Re: anyone tryied a spycar test on this

Why not try it yourself and post your result here. That would be interesting to find out...

 

Re: anyone tryied a spycar test on this

not necessary to try something which has been discussed before . These are behaviour analysis tests , HIPS programs can detect them (also Windows Defender , AFAIK detects some) but NOD32 and ESS doesn't guard the registry , they do not monitor the behaviour of the programs and they do not detect non-malicious files

 

if it has link me to the results if there are none then can someone test it

 

Only one it stopped was the first runonceex

 

I tried the first spycar test: with ESS 1b enabled, I was able to download the spyware software and install it without any problem; and after installation the spycar software was fully running.......

See above. Spycar would be a "junk" detection. It does no harm, so why bother detecting it and increasing the database size?
