[QUOTE="SeriousHoax, post: 997531, member: 78686"] ESET never did that in my tests, and Norton in my experience does things a bit differently. When you extract malware from a zip and Norton has database about it, it will often/most times block the extraction of those known threats before they are able to properly write themselves to the disk. This is some sort of early blocking, which helps them to reduce the time it takes to remove threats from the disk. Norton is probably the slowest at removing malware, so this method helps them to speed things up. Unknown threats are still extracted. [/QUOTE]
