No updates since 31.12.2006 ?

Hi all
My avast! pro last updates in 31.12.2006 VPS 0701-0
Why there isn’t updates so long time?

Sorry for my english…

0701-0 was released yesterday. What makes you think it was 31/12/2006?

Because I have not notifcation about update since 31.12.2006 and in virustotal.com I uplouded sample and there was dated avast! database as 21.12.2006 ?

VirusTotal cannot update for now (that’s another issue) but you can, and are, using the latest VPS (0701-0)

Hope this helps,
Vlk

I have a question…

I have 3 samples and avast can’t detect them, two of them is trojan and one is adware, I am inteseting: If i scan file in www.onlinescan.avast.com and it will not be detected as virus, they will analyse it? or it s beter send e-mail with these samples to virus@avast.com? How fast they will be added in avast! signatures?

I whait update because of this problem…

Can anybody answer me?

If you are not getting a virus warning that you believe is a new, undetected virus then if you can zip and password protect (‘virus’, will do) the suspect file and send it to virus @ avast.com (no spaces), or send from the chest (after adding it to the User Files section of the chest).

Give a brief outline of the problem (possibly a link to this thread), the fact that you believe it to be a either a new, undetected virus and include the password in the body of the email. Some info on the avast version and VPS number (see about avast {right click avast icon}) will also help.

I can’t say how long it would take to be added, I’m an avast user like you, but they would be prioritised and the adware would probably be less of a priority.

ok :slight_smile:
