[QUOTE="TheMalwareMaster, post: 660641, member: 47679"] Indeed. I can't understand why people here don't agree with my points... 1) If all samples are detected statically (manual scan with realtime protection disabled) there is no chance that the system got infected, because the user hasn't even launched the malware 2) How can a sample whose execution has been negated be able to infect a system? (considering VodooShield, COMODO at default-deny, avast hardened mode, some cloud products with avira. This doesn't happen always but there may be cases in which the entire set of samples is detected by signatures+cloud (considering avira). Knowing how avira works, the cloud doesn't let the sample run at all, and immediatly quarantines it These are the cases, in which, in my opinion, second opinion scanners are not needed. It was just to make the tester not waste time [/QUOTE]
