Well,maybe you hear about AVZ (http://www.z-oleg.com/secur/avz/). The program is used by the Russian virus helpers for analysis of infected systems. The program creates a quarantine,where suspicious files are stored. The files have .dta extension. Can Avast's virus lab analyze files with such extension?

Hi Onix,
If they can handle a dragon unpacker, they can, but wait for an answer by one of the avast mods,

we definitely prefer well documented formats (such as pw-protected zip) for the sample exchange... implementing an unpacker for some 3rd party stuff isn't a way to go..
-
Maybe you didn't understood me properly...I had in mind not an exchange :) My question is:can you handle files with .dta extension? I'm a virus helper on a Russian forum and i can send you examples with such extension sometimes. I've got 1 sample already :)
P.S i've sent the file on virus<at>avast.com
-
well, .dta as an extension may stand for many different file formats.. we would prefer some standard file formats also for single file analysis, not only for regular sample exchange.. ;)

O,i've understood :) well,i've sent an archive with avz00002.dta file. Try to handle a file and please give me feedback about your successful (no doubt) result ;D
