I don't have any experience with DrWeb, so this is just a general comment: I'm certainly surprised with this attitude... I consider all these...
Not necessarily. It's not that unlikely that an exploit appears (HTML, JavaScript, VBScript, GIF/JPG/whatever - how many of them were there...
The fact that some AV detected the packed file but didn't detect the unpacked one does not mean that it's detecting the packer! The signature may...

Heh, certainly not ;) I mean, the old ZIP encryption is certainly not very strong, but compared to ARJ, for example, it's bulletproof ;D And...

If you're running the antivirus on a (mail) server, it may get into troubles in case of a widespread infection... lot of bruteforcing to do ;) (I...

Basically, this announcement is just a PR crap, aimed to mislead the users. Where did IBK read/write anything here, btw?
Yes... but how do you know that the difference is small?
I was just trying to say that you don't know that - AVG could have allocated 100MB of memory and you wouldn't know (I'm not saying it does, just...
