Important list to watch..
« on: June 16, 2010, 10:57:29 PM »
Hi malware fighters,

Some malware is not detected evenly by all AV scanners. Example here: VirusTotal - labradory_krakow.republika.pl.htm - 7/41

http://www.virustotal.com/analisis/92afaef392ff6077b74feffc6b2ddca0833680bbb05bbcb9ceea9652a64ff0a9-1276715754

Avast is not one of these seven, the name of the malcode is:
http://lists.clean-mx.com/clean-mx/md5.php?F_Prot=JS/Redir.AQ
We learn there that avast detection rate for JS/Redir.AQ should be around 38%,
where avast finds JS/Redir.AQ as JS:Illredir-BP and JS:Illredir-CB
So when malcode is going under the avast radar we can check against these lists,
they are being refreshed every hour, so keep an eye out when needed,

Cybersecurity is more of an attitude than anything else. Avast Evangelists.

Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!
