[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 774150, member: 32260"] Tested Hard_Configurator with Sophos Premium. No problems. Tested [SIZE=18px][COLOR=rgb(0, 168, 133)][B]Sophos Premium[/B][/COLOR][/SIZE] against my collection of script trojan downloaders. All scripts bypassed the Sophos protection. The Exploit protection of MS Office was better, but after 15 minutes of testing, I found three ways of bypassing it to download/execute a payload. One bypass via macro and 2 bypasses via OLE. It is not as good as WD ASR rules which blocked all my weaponized scripts and MS Office documents. [B]Conclusion - Sophos Premium will benefit when using another application to protect against weaponized scripts and MS Office documents.[/B] [B]Edit.[/B] The tests with weaponized scripts & documents were done without H_C or another application.
