So much for the 0-day protection.

 

You certainly appear to have an agenda, and I'll ask you to stop trolling.

From this thread:

Blackspear.

 

trolly wanna cracker?

 

Blackspear and Zombini's results are of different files.

 

They certainly appear the same:

Cheers

 

Only Kaspersky detects it by same name. If you look at the other vendors results, you will see that either the names of the detected trojans are different, or it is not detected by those vendors, which is why I say they are different files.

 

What is Zombini's point, to boast?

 

possibly to show heusristics aren't all they were promised(or even still claimed by some)to be!

 

Nothing to see here people - move along. Steve1955 doesn't seem to understand the difference between 3 month ago and zero hour but it's OK he doesn't seem to want to understand...

Cheers

 

I have no issue with Zombini: What confuses me is that on one thread she is an enquirer with a company that wants to try NOD 32, in another thread she is mocking 0-Day exploit of NOD 32 using File: Nod32_Crack(1).exe, in a different thread she shows how to disable NOD 32 using commands. What is the point?

 

Trolling is the point, nothing more, nothing less.

Do NOT feed the Trolls.

Blackspear.

 

Feed the troll to make it fat and large.

 

Trolling is the point yes...the detection (or the non detection) by NOD could be the point too.
But I prefer stay on BlackSpears quote...this thread's closed...

 

Well, I'm guessing that Zombini is not grateful for the fact that NOD32 detects 58% of unknown viruses in the latest AV-comparatives test. Guess (s)he didn't realize the others scored even lesser...

Like the others say, an angry and somewhat young (if I'm wrong please correct me) troll.

Off-topic: How did you know Zombini is a she?

For that matter, all cracks are not necessarily malware (OK It is malware in the ethical sense though).

 

Unless the person using the 'username' does not know or deliberately trying to mislead, the 'in' part after letter b is female, a remote alternative will be 'small or baby'( for example , bambINo).

Zombie is unisex, but zomb will be male.

 

tho posting to this topic wont help, i wanted to quote the above for emphasis.

software piracy is bad of course, but it doesnt mean every single crack is infected with some malware.

 

`snipped comment` -dog
I would have thought it in Esets interest to detect any and all crack files for nod,in fact there should be an agreement between all the major AV companies to try and include ALL crack files for all programs in their data bases as soon as possible after any crack is released,in my opinion they are as much malware as any virus:-they may not attack your pc but they do indirectly increase software prices

 

It seems your the one that doesn't understand how heuristics are supposed to protect against zero hour exploits,or don't want to understand:-especially when they don't do what was promised!

 

Agree!

 

Works exactly as described by ESET on my system...

 

I agree too.
Personally I have no sense of urgency to see cracks added for their own sake - I'm happy that ESET do that on a slow day when they've already got every thing on file that is malicious added...

 

It doesn't:- not on yours,mine or anybody's!when they were first introduced they were going to offer protectction against zero day exploits,its quite clear that really they only protect against some,it was mooted that protection against most,if not all zero day exploits ,would be what offerederhaps this was just sales/advertising jargon and should have been viewed as such!

 

I'm sorry you're a bit out of sorts with it - I'm not sure what you've read or where it came from....

Just a hunch but I'm guessing that the estimates ESET have stated were based on some actual testing and using NOD32 updated to the point prior to the new malwares being release or first discovered - a little different to three months of updates starvation....

Cheers

 

A few clarifications are in order before I get kicked off the board

 

Why not just do a real-world test?

Take a pc, infect it with as much as you can find, clone the hdd (one for each AV software you want to test) then compare the results....

You WILL find that NOD does come out tops
