[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 986200, member: 32260"] It seems that you have got two different answers (Yes and No). The problem was with the meaning of "[B][COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]and so on[/COLOR][/B]". [USER=71496]@Adrian Ścibor[/USER] answered that Level 3 detections/blocks (like behavior blocker/HIPS) are included in proactive detections. His answer is correct if your "so on" can mean "post-execution and non-signature detections". But, it is not generally true. In some cases the file is executed (Level 3) and next detected by the signature in the cloud, so it is not a proactive detection. I answered that the category of Level 3 detections can be much smaller than proactive detections, so Level 3 detections are not the same as many proactive detections. I did not mention that many Level 3 detections (like behavior blocker/HIPS) are proactive ones.:)(y) [/QUOTE]
