 I've tried to send a few undetected malware using the virus chest but so far i'm not having any luck :(
After repairing the Avast instalation the problem persists, does anybody else having this problem?

I am not too sure, but I think that my submissions may not be sent...
I can still see the files prepared for sending in the C:\ProgramData\Alwil Software\Avast5\spool\suspic folder...

How do you know the samples were not sent?

they won't be sent before the next update, that's a normal and expected behavior.

my point was that I can't tell...It doesn't show the sending of the file when you update...
