[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 1115494, member: 32260"] There were some bypasses (currently patched) mainly related to the "Mark of the Web" (MotW) issues. But they did not bypass RunBySmartScreen. SmartScreen has known limitations, so it must be used in addition to the AV. Its effectiveness is similar to Avast's CyberCapture (cloud sandbox). The Smart App Control protection of PE files (EXE, DLL, etc.) cannot be bypassed via MotW issues. However, the protection against other potentially dangerous file types (scripts, shortcuts, etc.) can be bypassed in this way. [/QUOTE]
