Future Changes to Prevx

I have and it doesn't seem to make much of a difference it just jumped around. but without it installed, the mouse works fine.

 

It may be worth having a remote support session to solve this. If you'd be interested, could you please send me a PM and we can schedule a time from there?

Thanks!

 

it has already been uninstalled I had to because things would freeze because ot it.

 

Virtualization/sandboxing of files unknown to your central and analysis.


Has this been suggested before and do you've any plans for something like this or similar to this?

 

Yes Prevx 4 uses virtualization/sandboxing techniques but isn't a conventional sandbox... per-se.

I'll clarify this more once we get closer to a beta

 

I am once again requesting increased detection of rouge AVs.

Even at maximum heuristic settings they're running past Prevx without a hint or prompt. I could post an example right now but I know it's against the rules to link to malware at Wilders.

Shouldn't unknown and new files get detected by age/popularity criteria and prompt me what to do? These bad-ass-malwares installs silently while Prevx does nothing (and that goes for Panda Cloud Antivirus and Avira Premium as well).

 

It is in the making, Prevx 4 will get a special Behaviour detection for rogue's

 

Does this mean that Prevx 4 will not be compatible with the likes of Returnil and Shadow Defender which the present versions of Prevx are?

 

I kind of knew that already. I was just trying emphasize the importance of such implemention once again. It's the weak spot of Prevx!

 

Hi

Any chance of adding safeonline protection to flashpeaks slimbrowser?

Hi

Scratch that, just found out it's based on IE which makes me a little uncomfortable.

No, Prevx will still remain compatible with everything it is compatible with today

 

I am once again pleading for better rouge AV protection. All files should get checked against Prevx database. If never seen before, I want to know about it. Even at all max heuristic this one just got through without any notification from Prevx:

MD5 : d96a9047e5c30fb2f709d0f45783efe0

Cheers!

 

In our defense, I just checked that MD5 on VT and no one finds it (VBA32 just says it is using a cryptor, but not an actual detection).

 

I dont think spamming the request thread with the same request will make it happen any faster to be honest....how about sending them the samples so they can be added?

 

It's also probably worth noting that the MSI itself won't contain the malicious components - if you actually install it, does Prevx not warn?

 

It does not warn when installing and it does not seem to add any malware onto my computer. KIS 2011 however warns me the application is untrusted (seen by less than 10 users of the community) and asks me whether or not to trust it, run under restrictions or block it. I choose to trust it and no reaction yet from Prevx (and to be completely fair, Kaspersky doesn't detect it as malicious, just unknown).

The Rouge AV was PCDefenderSilentSetup.msi and was collected from MDL. Silently installed in program files\def\ and when I executed the .exe, a scan window was shown from Prevx down in right corner but was allowed to run... and I was screwed. Firefox got terminated and the dice was rolled. Some russian bad-ass scanner completely destroyed my computer and had to restart with Returnil.

I will stop spamming this thread now with the request. I just sent it to Prevx.

 

You can say what ever you want and keep doing so!! But it is best to send to Prevx to get them added! V4 will have something better to handle rogue's so that's good to know!

I know, I know, I know. I'll stop.

 

I would like to see an online file submission webpage to negate the need for logging into email in order to send suspicious files.

 

Agreed. Would allow quicker and more easy-going submission of files without 'the hassle'.

 

The 'authenticating files' message window could have an "always on top" option.

 

I support this request

 

Use ThreatFire and Prevx together = Excellent

 

I long for Prevx 4!
