[QUOTE="wat0114, post: 979869, member: 91306"] So in a nutshell I guess you are saying an AV with [U]initial[/U] protection against documents and scripts in addition to detection of exe's is better than just detecting exe's using latest definitions? This seems obvious to me, but maybe you mean something a little different? Just like Windows Defender for home users is so much stronger when something like the vaunted Configure Defender is used to augment it :) BTW, not meaning to nitpick, but thought I'd point out that you may have meant to use "Peculiarity" as the noun in the thread title ;) [/QUOTE]
