yeah, that's what used to happen..... but now the PDF opens, and I get the malware warning... very odd.

ok, that is odd... I was testing with a saved zip file, but if I download a fresh PDF(zip) file, it is stopped on execution... would there be any reason for that?

so, if I extract the file from the downloads folder, it is stopped on extraction.... but if I extract the file from a different folder, the PDF file is opened, and WVSX issues the warning... :confused:
Hi,
With the realtime protection enabled, WVSX blocked the sample immediately when double click on it.

Do you mean that WVSX didn't block the sample when you ran it?

when the zip is downloaded, and you extract it, it is blocked... but if I move the zip to another folder location called 'security tests', and extract it, the PDF file opens, but you still get the 'malware blocked' popup... so I can only assume that the dropper has been taken care of, as I cannot find an offending TMP file.

Thanks for your reply.
Can you please tell me what's your default PDF reader? We will try to reproduce what you have posted.

Just for your information.
I just downloaded Revo Uninstaller and WVSX flagged it as malware.
Hi,
Thanks for your feedback.
Can you please tell me it was flagged as malware by our static detection or behavior detection?
Please be noted that without exiting WVSX, there will be an malware alert whenever a program is trying to uninstall WVSX or modify the files in our installation folder.

It was flagged when download was complete as a trojan and i got the question to quarantin or exclude. I excluded and reported as false.

Hi,
Can you please tell me what the Heuristic Analysis level you have set?
We have tested, our static detection didn't flag it as malware...

Just had some time to check out WVSX ver 2.72, specifically as it pertains to the auto restore of encrypted files functionality.

Although not the easiest of tasks as WV will stop almost all encryptors before they even can reach the honeypot files, I did modify a Pony that was able to actually encrypt files that I was monitoring. Once this (the encryption) occurred two popups appeared- the first was the usual malware detected alert- the other popup was a Threat Remediation alert listing all the stuff that was encrypted (with the notation Recovery Needed) along with a choice to Apply (Rollback).

The restoration took a few seconds, but all went rather swimmingly with all the files that were acted upon by Pony were once again happy and healthy and back where they belonged along with the encrypted versions being trashed.

Nice work, WV.
