[QUOTE="shmu26, post: 813319, member: 37647"] You are paying a price for the lightness. I will quote an interesting post I saw on this subject: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.wilderssecurity.com/threads/av-comparatives-performance-test-april-2019.416370/#post-2825766[/URL] Ultra Male said: [URL='https://www.wilderssecurity.com/goto/post?id=2825720#post-2825720']↑[/URL] anon: That leads to on-execution scan/detection only. i.e. = Today you run a full scan, you have the X malware but your AV signature database miss it. Tomorrow, a new signature for the X malware is added but the file (which is already scanned) remains with the same hash = whitelisted => undetected. [/QUOTE]
