[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 1122538, member: 32260"] Although many malwares can be recognized by observing the created processes as presented in the video, many others can infect the system silently in a second. The test ended after running 484 samples, and 18 samples (3.73%) were allowed to run. Without detailed analysis, we cannot be sure how many of those 18 samples could infect the system. Using HitmanPro could help with known samples, but it cannot be used to identify many new malwares.
