[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 1022112, member: 7463"] Thank you for an excellently clear (and produced) video. The point that you discussed at the end of the video regarding routine detection of packers by AV vendors is an important one for any that code malware. Sadly some AV vendors will by default flag a file malicious that would otherwise be considered legitimate simply because something like UPX was utilized. Microsoft is notorious for this with their "Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.B!ml" designation. This can, from time to time, be an inconvenience (not that I would know anything about it). [/QUOTE]
