virus detect
« on: July 18, 2009, 08:44:10 AM »
Sorry for English.
I Founded a couple of viruses. sent them by mail virus@avast.com three days ago, but nothing has changed. Avast still finds no viruses, although the update receives a daily basis.

Founded: Dr.Web, Kasperskiy, Nod, Symantec.
Avast Pro: Not Founded.

Hi dos622,
Your English is OK.
Any chance you could also upload the files to Virustotal and post the links to the results page, please?
It would be good to see Avast get onto these.

Thank you.
That confirms your statement. (I didn't doubt it at all.)


According to Symantec, here and here, the risk level is low, there are not many infections (0-49 known, for both,) damage medium/low.
Other information I have read indicates one or both of these are password stealers. Not to be taken lightly. Country of origin, I haven't seen. (Don't know.)
Lucky you!  ;)
Lets hope Avast adds these detections, soon.

 Hope it gets fixed. As of now, based from what I see, analysis of new samples submitted to ALWIL is a bit faster than before. So i guess, tomorrow would be the day for that.

If you want to send them to alwil, send them in a password protected archive to virus(at)avast(dot)com, advisingthe password in the body of the email. you could also add a link to this thread.

Or you could add the files to the 'user files' area of the chest and send it from there.

These are the same as the files you reported at the beginning of the thread?
You say you have already emailed them to Avast.
Nothing more to do, but wait, I'm afraid.

You could try a different demand scanner, such as Superantispyware, and/or MBAM,. both run OK with Avast. They are (in the free versions) demand anti malware/trojan scanners, and both are very good.
