Not all AV programs scan files the same nor do they use the same definitions.

This is a growing problem that I hope one day can become more universally synchronous.

There is not 1 single AV that detects all known viruses correctly even with advanced hueristics scans...and almost all of them give too many false positives.

Perhaps you can tell us about the file you have which you feel is a virus?

you would have to describe the file your trying to scan. and like he said he could be a false posative

I think NOD32 is not as good as everybody say...

there's this virus i found in a FlashDisk called RJump or RavMon which NOD32 does'nt EVEN care about!

even when it's actions are obviously malign.... and i said to myself: well, what the hell, it's just that the update has'nt arrived yet

i waited for 1 month, and they still don't cover it! i mean, how can they let it get away just like that?

for me, it's the sign to move on to other options
