There are many other fixes in this version that i havent included here.
Please feel free to let us know about your experiences especially with new heuristics commandline analyzing
features. E.g. If you see an alert like this, dont be surprized: “evil.pdf is trying to connect
the Internet” or “test.dll is trying to access the memory of …”.
working great guys, nice work. I have tested it against a known file to have a bad faked signature and it is now caught and sandboxed. I have also tested against an rogue msi installer and it is now being caught. Good job.
Do you know what kind of “things” does Comodo check… in the end the signature seems alright isn’t it?
Or does it have some bugs in it and that’s why it is being caught ?
@Melih or egemen: What is the reason why you don’t add protection against some of the Matousec leaktests on x64?
Many other programs score better there (the upcoming Online Armor version will be better too).
