Yeah it's the attack of the check summing monsters - I uploaded a delf trojan sample today to VT, 36/41 detection,
altered a byte in the end of file padding and now 24/41 detection.

0/41
:o

We will live to see the death of sig based AVs.
Are there any serious AV vendors that would rely on signature-based detection only? Rather than the 0/41 VT results, it would be much more interesting to see the detection rates when the file is actually executed and the emulation and sandboxing techniques kick in (at what settings the different scanners in VT run? How many even have heuristics enabled or set to "aggressive" levels?).
