I used to send viruses via Email,but I never receive the reply.So I want to submit here,could I?
Are you currently having a problem with your system?
Please give us some information about your machine (OS, RAM, etc.).
What security software do you currently have and did you have?
What version and product of Avast are you using? Did you have a previous version?
Did you run a scan? What type?
Do you have any on-demand scanners on your machine? What are they?
No, my system runs well,I just got some samples that avast! cant detect,I want to help avast! detect these.
There are other online sites you can submit them to. Please see the General Forum section for suggestions or do a search on this forum.
BTW, I was reviewing your previous posts. Did your problem of not being able to use your Virus Chest and not being able to do an Avast Repair get resolved? I noticed that you did not post back in your original thread regarding this issue. You may want to post that your problem is now fixed if it is or post that you still need help.
If you feel that your issue is now resolved/fixed, please go back to the open post in the topic(s), click the modify button in that Post and change the title/subject, add [Resolved] to the beginning of the title so this thread can be closed. Thank you.
You may want to try submitting samples to http://www.virustotal.com/, but there are many others to submit to, and this site often gets busy. So do a search as I suggested above.
I used to send samples virus@avast.com ,but now I want to submit viruses here, just send samples to virus Analysts via this forum.
If you are having a problem with something on your machine or want to inform others about something, you are welcome to post something on the forum, but we donāt traditionally take āvirus samplesā for analysis. That is why I gave you my suggestions as these are more appropriate places to submit them.
thanks for your help,I will continue submitting via email.
Email to where?
Did you read my Post #6?
You mean I should scan sampels on http://www.virustotal.com/ ?
But I am sure that these files is halmful and Avast! found nothing.
I want to upload virus samples here,but you said I shoud send to virus@avast.com,yes?
Noā¦upload to http://www.virustotal.com/ or another online virus scanner.
Do you have any additional questions?
:-\I think you donāt know what I saidā¦
In ESET forum I can upload viruses so that the agent can submit viruses to virus Analystļ¼ now I am asking if I could do thisā¦
No. I do understand what you are saying.
virus@avast.com will do nicely.(The file is best zipped and password-pretected. Include the password in the message body.)
I think what Safesurf is suggesting is that you might want to check them first by uploading them (one at a time) to the virustotal site, which is a multi-scanner file checker. (42 different updated AVās check uploaded files, I think).
They can also be submitted from the chest. See here
You should not always expect a reply by email, the guys and girls are maybe too busy for that; Iād imagine they get hundreds of submissions.
Any reply would take the form of the file concerned being detected by Avast in the future. (Or a false positive being not detected.)
The forum has no facility for virus analysis, and is not a place where virus samples are traded, as far as I know. If it is, it would be a private matter between forum members, and not public.
Avast rarely give answers unless they need more Information about UM FP but you can send UM or FP via email or via virus chest.
That is correct. Iāve just been notified to end discussion in this thread and Mods or DavidR. will take care of this matter should the OP continue discussion.
OK,question has been solved.
