[QUOTE="Deleted member 65228, post: 697524"] Good to see I'm not the only one who thinks that VS is hardly known outside these walls. I had a run in with the developer not so long ago, didn't believe that in the real world VS is unheard of to the real average Joe... Must Thinks his company is as large as Symantec lol. You're right and the developer should make some line of defense because they already have access to kernel-mode since they have an EV digital signature so by not adding enhanced self defence they are sort of not using their resources to the best of their ability I think, but at the same time I think macro's are flawed in itself and it is better to just not use Microsoft Office, or use it with macro's disabled in the first place if you want to be secure. I doubt you'll find any macro in the wild which targets VS though. The malware authors I doubt have heard of VS So with this taken into account, the developer probably doesn't care about doing self-defence and probably has more important things to focus on [/QUOTE]
