found a keylogger, how do i report it

[trschober]

Hello, I found a keylogger deassembling a popular "hack" for an online game, shall this be detected by avast? I think that it should since it compromises the whole computer security, tell me how do I submit the offending file and I'll gladly do it.

thanks in advance

If you are not getting a virus warning that you believe is a new, undetected virus then if you can zip and password protect ('virus', will do) the suspect file and send it to virus @ avast.com (no spaces), or send from the chest after adding it to the User Files section of the chest.

Give a brief outline of the problem (possibly a link to this thread), the fact that you believe it to be a either a new, undetected virus and include the password in the body of the email. Some info on the avast version and VPS number (see about avast {right click avast icon}) will also help.
