As per this post:

Total Signatures: 1,013,164   1,027,031 (edited by Melih...sorry the guys are working extra this weekend!!! Smiley ) 1,110,674 as of 21 Jan 09

1,013,164 signatures since Jan 18th
1,110,674 signatures since Jan 21st
1,140,630 signatures since Jan 23rd
1,197,747 signatures since Jan 27th
1,294,070 signatures since Feb 4th

There would be more now obviously. But this just goes to show... How fast the malware database is growing, and at this rate... what can we all expect in 3 months or so? One big fat database!

I think this is the fastest Ive seen. over 100,000 samples added in 3 days is pretty impressive... Don't you guys reckon?  Well done Comodo, And a HUGE Congratulations to all the users who sent an amazing amount of samples to them!  Smiley Awesome stuff!

 ilovecomodo

Cheers,
Josh

What are the main sources of signatures? CIMA? Files submitted from My Pending files? Incidental donations of malware collectors? Just nosy... Nerd

many users are helping with submissions, we have places like virustotal are sending us samples, we have our own ways of collecting and some collobration with other security companies.

Please keep the malware coming... the more we see, the less they can harm Wink

How many of these signatures are currently included with CIS (both 3.5 and beta2 AV Db2)?

Most of the test require heuristics in the products. So perhaps after the new beta comes out we can start sending it to the tests Smiley

Agree with Xan sending it without heuristic would be suicidal!

But will be nice to see how well it scores!  Nerd Nerd

But then again, packer detection would only make loads of false positives...
