[QUOTE="bazang, post: 1122665, member: 114717"] Microsoft Defender allowed Unicorn to run. It is the malware that caused the system to freeze. Microsoft Defender has signatures for it but still it allowed Unicorn to run. I don't care about anything else and I have not been talking about them. I clearly said "There were no Microsoft Defender alerts requiring the user to make a ALLOW or BLOCK decision." The system restart notifications are not relevant to what I said, but I did accurately state that two (2) did appear. Yeah, actually he is. He knows way more than people here suspect or realize. He is constantly criticized as "not knowing what he is talking about when it comes to Microsoft Defender", but actually, he does - very much so. He just is not going to produce videos that are acceptable to people here. He creates videos in his own way. Leo does not believe it is his job to educate users to anything other than the risks of relying upon antivirus software. He is open and honest that he does not like Microsoft Defender because in his extensive testing, it just has never performed well - and he uses Kaspersky as his basis of judging other AV test results. He uses Kaspersky as a standard of comparison - even if he does not explicitly state this in every video. He is not going to provide the amount of detail that some people here demand of him. He has to prove nothing to no one. I never argued that "all non-block-by-default solutions have poor heuristics and behavior blocking." I never said any such thing. You are putting words into my mouth. What I said is until default deny is deployed, system infections remain significantly high but then drop to virtually zero (when proper default deny is deployed and managed by knowledgeable and skilled personnel). I did not say that Leo did. What I said was "If Leo had used Kaspersky or Bitdefender in the video instead of Microsoft Defender, either of those two solutions would not have resulted in a frozen/locked test system." Of course there is no absolute proof of this but the probability is very high that this statement is correct. [/QUOTE]
