New Advanced Heuristics module ?

Has anyone done a comparison with the old AHM to see how much more effective the new AHM is ?

ie. how much better is it ?

 

Hi,
I scanned my collection using the new module without database and it detect a lot more. It detected new trojans and worm that the old module doesn't detected.

 

I notice the difference too...for example, after the improvement nod detected a security program i use to have long time ago like a new virus based upon heuristics...then this bugg was fixed...but it just shows that now heuristics are much more aggresive, and sometimes may result as false positive.

 

which one are you talking about?? Version 1.011?? build 1067??

I don't have NOD32 currently installed so I couldn't say what version it is. It's just that Marco mentioned about a month ago that a new improved Heuristics module had been released.

I was curious as to how much better it actually is ?

 

Information on other scanner support parts
Advanced heuristics module version: 1.011 (20041126)
Advanced heuristics module build: 1067

 

Hi,

I have just bought Nod32 and love it

The advanced Heuristics work very well. Does it work on the same principle as Norman's Sandbox technology?

I have set my Nod32 to use advanced Heuristics in the IMON and on demand settings and use normal heuristics in the AMON scanner.

I recommend to you enable AH in AMON too. It doesn't have any slowdown to your machine.

 

Thanks!

I have just switched on AH in AMON. You are right there does not seem to be much/any slow down so far.

Cheers
