[QUOTE="zidong, post: 1109373, member: 115014"] Happened 3 months ago and PC Mag is one of many that advertise paid antivirus products. It would have been interesting if they had tested with other antivirus programs at the same time, not several days later when all antivirus products already detect this malware. [MEDIA=reddit]CryptoCurrency/comments/1evv07x[/MEDIA] Notably, this malware, like some others deployed by hackers, detects a user's location to decide whether to proceed with the attack. In this case, if a Windows user downloaded the malware on a device based in [B]Russia[/B], Ukraine, or Belarus, the malware would not proceed. Can't believe it :ROFLMAO: [/QUOTE]
