[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 778219, member: 32260"] One correction. In this case the malware did not disabled WD. The initial document was detected (malicious content), but WD allowed to download/run the payload. The final payload was not detected and remained persistent after reboot. Anyway, that can be a good example to show that WD on default settings (even in sandbox) is not the best solution for people who use MS Office and allow macros for documents downloaded from the Internet. That behavior is like crossing the street with eyes closed. Edit. [USER=53544]@RoboMan[/USER], thanks for the interesting video.:giggle: [/QUOTE]
