[QUOTE="SeriousHoax, post: 879368, member: 78686"] WD has improved the rate at which they create offline signatures but still lags behind most of the competitors. Sometimes they create offline signatures within a day or two, sometimes takes 5-6 days and more based on the prevalence of the sample I assume. So, from my experience I would say local signatures will detect most of newer threats within 7-10. But anyway, scanning with WD is resource heavy and time consuming so it's simply better to use better second opinion scanners and use WD for at which it's good at which is Real Time Protection.
