backdoor sd.bot

i really hope some one can answer my question??how with a antivirus program of nod32's status could i every get the virus backdoor sd bot on my system in the first place?and whats even more troubling is it was a symantec product that found and got rid of it.all i can say is my hole out look is alot difreent now.symantec finding things that nod32 cant.if some one told me that i would say no way untill now. shame on nod32

 

First af all no AV is perfect, so a av can detect a malware and the other not.
Please try to use /ah command, I'm sure that it backdoor is detected by AH.
Also send it to: samples@nod32.com so they can study them and add detection.

 

hi.sir carew.i was so pissed that i uninstalled and left symantic on my system ontill i came around and uninstalled symantec and deleted the virus that was quarentined in symantec.the funny thing is i was testing symantec antivirus client for a buudy of mine and found the virus.i know nod32 have been slipping a bit but symantec come on time to start showing that you are the best.but not like this ps i love nod32 but where did the saftey net go..........

 

hi.dvk01.yes i know that symantec is bigger and can detect more viruses and trojan's.its just that i have been reading the vb100 reports and nod32 always does better than symantec.note iam talking about symantec not norton. symantec is corporate while norton is home use.and like i said in my first post it was just a fluke i found it.i was testing symantec for a bud of mine

 

hi.dvk01.dont get me wrong i dont our will i ever use symantec or norton i love nod 32 and its reinstalled i like to think iam a faithfull user.its good that you reposted it did soung like you where saying that symantec was the safer of the two.if you get the updates first from one orthe other your that much safer.i have got a new trojan detector and am running nod32 again..........

 

Let me clear this up about Norton/Symantec

Peter Norton started the Norton AV many years ago. His company is called
Symantec. His Av is called Norton. All of his products are called Norton.

Thanks

Hello,
It isn't true, Peter Norton has started Norton AV it's true, but his company isn't symantec, symantec has bought NAV many years ago and now NAV isn't of Peter Norton.

 

hi.i dont know who owns it all i know is there is a corporate side and thats symantec norton is for home use...............

 

Symantec kept the Norton name to retain brand name recognition. As noted, Peter Norton hasn't had any involvement in the product which bears his surname since Symantec bought the company from him years ago.

But anyway, back to the topic.

 

ya time to get back on track the mods and paul wilders will not like the symantec talk on nod32's forum.......
