NOD32 is the leader in heuristic's scanning, that test, far beyond scientific as it is, doesn't even use the latest version of NOD32, or even use its heurisitic capabilities to its full capacity.

---

can the leader NOD32 detect this?

I'd be more than happy if I never saw another AV Product vs AV Product thread again. At least not until there are users involved mature enough to see both sides of the arguements.

To dos from FF again!

Between those referred versions of DrWeb (4.29a...4.29c) in checkvir 10-2003 av-test DrWeb's database increased totally with 8 305 infection names, that's about 874 infections per month. If DrWeb could detect some 30 % of those heuristically, it's then about 250 NEW heuristics detections per month. If you are saying that NOD32 with DEEP heuristics is clearly better than DrWeb's, you can also show a list of NOD's heuristic detected NEW infections in one month's NEW infections list which contains clearly over 250 different infection names! Can you show us such kind of list?

Anyone may be able to show some tens of heuristic detected infections with any possible antivirus, but that's not the same as the heuristics in that case was in top world class.

In my mind there have to be a correlation between excellent heuristics and false alarms. After reading numerous topics here at DSL Forums, I have read several times that NOD's heuristics is capable to make minimal false alarms. Do you really believe that NOD was capable to invent the wheel again, where is no room to false alarms and it's still huge better than any other av in heuristics? From where we can buy that kind of unique wisdom?

It's an other story how good NOD's Advanced Heuristics is, but that's not a normal option in NOD and you can't even find that from NOD's interface. If you think why it's hidden, you may understand the real reason! I can give a hint, it's not the poor scanning speed or huge resource consumption but something else!

Because you know NOD better than I, you can tell us if NOD is capable to detect infections with AH as On-Access when you are using Opera browser or putting CD:s to your PC which may contain viruses?

Best regards,
FF again!

look at here
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Eset\Nod\CurrentVersion\Modules\AMON\Settings\Config000\Scanner ]

and take the Parameter : adv_heur_enable=1

an know you have AH wis Amon on ervery Start of the System
