[QUOTE="Pilot777, post: 1034909, member: 94948"] Hi, everyone! It's been almost three days since AVG/Avast customer support indicated that a sample I uploaded is indeed a malware, but it's still not being detected by their products. Looks like a major hole in AVG/Avast protection to me... Ordinary users are not supposed to be hunting for malware, and to be doing their job for them. There's no other explanation for this ridiculous situation, unless someone on the inside in AVG/Avast doesn't want this particular malware to be detected. 'Cause this one is detected virtually by every other security vendor, except by AVG/Avast. Makes me wonder if it's because this malware was actually originated by someone from AVG/Avast [URL="https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/1fbe885c0747a5735dce3ace377e26521dd11f981e5eda8050a6e8ce5ebc20e4?nocache=1"]VirusTotal[/URL] They are saying "it is already being detected by Avast apps", but it is a lie...
