Does the Spybot labs have only Human Virus analysts? Are there any automatic machine virus analysts? May I know the reason for weekly updates? Do you higher any special malware submitter?

Take a look here:

Happy new Year! :santa:

It has been quite a long time since Spybot lab is facing tussles with the payware AVs. I don't think it will come to an end unless you to take a legal action against them....

A picture says a thousand words....:)

Hello,

I would like to inform you that I am was actually referring to the Avira Free's update technique. Although they have a single detection base file, the updates are always short and sweet. :)...

Oh PepiMk! Thanks!

I wish, in next birth, you would be my college professor. :)

Total: 1298391 fingerprints in 366315 rules for 4505 products.

Please explain the terminologies in brief.

I'm sorry to say, but spybot does not detect "viruses".

Hello,

Do the Spybot labs accept the malware collection uploaded to rapidshare.com? Do you guys owe a premium account? cuz the files are splitted into many parts.

Hello,

Hello,

Yesterday I had sent 4 rouge av/as.....and today they all are added to the detection bases!!! WOW, that was fast!....keep up the good work. :bigthumb:

I have noticed that since last 4...

Although there was a sudden increase in the detection rate, why does the update change log (the thing that appears on the homepage of spybot) does not look proportionate to the addition of detection?...

Hi,

I would be great if spybot integrates all the detection bases (trojan,worms,rouges,etc.) into a single file. Something similar to Avira's VDF. One file all detection bases. :)

Moreover,...

Thanks. :)

No.
Simply opening the RAR archive will not cause the "release" of the virus.

Was there removal of detection patterns? (it's manually highlighted red in the graph)

Okay.....Now I understand what you were trying to say. :oops:

Well, in which programming language is Spybot written?

Well I wrote a simple "if..else" ladder for detection of malware based on C language via MD5 detection

For information puorpose only, since I am a 1st Sem student, I am a newbie in the field of...

Are you referring to screenshot 2? Please neglect the first screenshot.

Hello,

This is my suggestion for increasing the scan speed mechanism.

Well, there are many AV/AS out there which have millions of detection pattern. For example Avira detects more than a...

Thanks for adding it in detection list...

You have openly admitted that you were working for the PanicWare.

FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE ACCUSION!


@PepiMk, please ban SuperAntiSpyware's handle, look how un-prefessional he is behaving! I am totally sick of his false accusions.

@SuperAntiSpyware, if you have...

I've send it to the labs but have not received any response yet. If anyone wants the link to the "awesome" rouges for testing purpose, please PM me.

At the home page of Spybot, in the Update description section what's the difference between + and ++?

When there is a war between the good and the evil, the good always wins--it's a universal law.

You have power to at least use your software to tap such deceptive evils.

You certainly can either...

Have you analysed SAS's behavior deeply, and found anything malicious? I'm sure they are hiding something from the customers.

OH MAN!!! That's a horrid news! Shouln't a legal action be taken against them?

Kasperky is the aggressor in this case.....while Spybot always maintains it's neutrality towards other products. I once had a tussle with Kaspersky moderator regarding the poor Rouge AV detection,...

Hello,

This is to inform the analysts that trustcleaner adware is not detected by spybot. I don't have the sample right now, unfortunately, but if possible please add the detection.

Take a look at the screenshot....the file which I had sent you is infact malicous and is not harmless.

Name of file: system32.zip

Please let me know if they are added in detection list.

Please check out the PM.

As i said before, scan the entire Windows Installation drive (by default its C:\)

Ooooops a typo:

I've actually sent the samples at: detections@spybot.info

Sorry for that! :)

So....why are the samples not under detections?

There isn't any toggle on/off feature unfortunately....:sad:

I think you need to upgrade the version of Windows....at least you can upgrade to Windows ME.....no harm.....:D:

By the way, shall I PM you the samples?

You need to uninstall the software first.

And then on reinstalltion uncheck the box that installs the feature. :)
