Just wondering what the latest is on this, please!

All Anti-virus software out there (To my knowledge) except ‘one’ will detect this particular Trojan. I love Avast with all my heart but i would be interested to know why the highly dangerous ‘TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen’ is’nt getting detected.

Thanks! :slight_smile:

Hi Rambouu,

You can continue to love your avast av solution, because you were protected all the time by the avast Network shield that prevents you to connect to sites like this: htxp://stireadebacau.ro/ey4o.exe and to 'TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen on there, so your computer won’t even meets this malcode…
So this threat url is being detected as URL:Mal. We have detection via the shields. So as ageneral advice to all, keep these avast shields up and running, guys and gals, because they form a vital part of your ptotection,
