[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 774711, member: 32260"] That is right.:emoji_ok_hand::giggle: All other tested AVs, except KIS, need an external tool to block scripts. KIS allows the user to block script interpreters (and other sponsors) or add them to one of the restricted groups. [B]The default KIS settings are not the best for the home users. [/B]The VBScript samples were mostly blocked by heuristic rules, but after transferring to PowerShell, the samples were allowed to run as Low Restricted. I think, that default settings and heuristic rules were adjusted in KIS for using in Enterprises. The same can probably be said about most (paid) AVs. [/QUOTE]
