[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 1022381, member: 32260"] The file was a part of the attack (it is not a legal file), so even if it is already dead or not malicious itself (without a payload) then it should not be on the computer. The detection of Norton is not perfect. The protection is far better due to Download Insight. Anyway, also reputation-based solutions are imperfect. I can imagine that a coin-miner malware that uses 30% of the CPU, can be installed on many computers (even intentionally) and bypass reputation-based protection. The same is true for some legal Adware. [/QUOTE]
