Another tool like GMER is IceSword. It's done by a chinese programmer, but an english version is available. It looks crappy but does an okay job, sometimes some things can hide from gmer but not this, for example

combofix is actually dozens of little utilities... some of them probably have to do some pretty crazy stuff to get at rootkits, and it's possible AV heuristics think you've got evil hacking tools.

Here's how good trojans/viruses work: Update your code and install base faster than antivirus companies can. So yes, it's dangerous AND they're better at detecting it AND it's getting better at not getting detected.

Orange Juilius posted:HIPS prevents this from being a problem. It's still within the realm of possibility to find an exploit in these systems as well, but if you find that's happening, chances are someone's out for you, as the average credit card harvester/botnet operator isn't going to waste time on the tiny segment of computers using them.

CWSandbox is pretty good too, but that tells a different story, and if your funny file knows its in a VM it's going to just bail on you.

You know how in the fine print household cleaners say you need to soak it on the surface for 30 seconds to really kill bacteria? Well, if you haven't done a 3-pass wipe it's possible that your computer could become breeding ground for format-resistant superviruses!
