[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 828105, member: 32260"] I noticed that the malware packs on Malware Hub do not include the malware attacks introduced by shortcuts. There are some less common possibilities, too (CHM scriptors, etc.). Malicious shortcuts are delivered in ZIP archives with embedded malicious scripts and can use PowerShell or other Interpreters (wmic.exe, etc.) to run these scripts by command line. It is pretty common in the wild and will bypass SysHardener script protection (by file extension). In these cases, malware packs simply ignore shortcuts and include only the scripts. So the malware in the wild (not blocked by SysHardener) will be blocked by SysHardener on Malware Hub.(y) [/QUOTE]
