[QUOTE="Prayag, post: 645038, member: 60553"] As for qihoo 360 Ts,it didn't do any well. It can't even detect it through signatures. I have set up it at maximum settings but without any third party av as I think a product should provide this type of protection through its default engine and bit defender engine in qihoo 360 isn't that optimized either.It(when bit defender engine is installed and up-to-date) can't detect many samples that eek detects through bit defender engine long back. Even the cloud engine of qihoo couldn't detect it. Its behavior blocking or dynamic protection also couldn't block it. I was shocked to see the result so I have tried running the threat 3 times after turning it back to the earlier state but nothing changed. Every time eek detected it. So if any malware of such type couldn't be detected through signatures then rest assured the behavior blocker of qihoo will not prevent it from abusing powershell and other such stuffs(but avast can,to some extent and you will be infected without you even knowing. So my advice is to use avast instead of qihoo as qihoo only seem to have special patterns for preventing ransomware attack but not general and process hollowers but avast is great in detecting (thanks to its continuosly improved idp)general,process hollowers as well as ransomwares better than qihoo(at this moment) and I also felt that avast uses less resources as compared to qihoo. Well,if you use comodo fw tweaked than you can opt for any av,it doesn't really matter,but for standalone av,the choice is clear(it isn't qihoo). Hope you have got all the answers for your queries. Thanks for reading so far. [/QUOTE]
