Comment
Your computer is toast
When will a silver bullet come along that makes computers work as well as toasters?
Adware analysis
Standing the privilege attack
The security and resource implications of adware - particularly in the corporate environment - are becoming an increasing concern for users. While AV vendors continue the tricky process of determining what should and should not be detected, adware itself is becoming increasingly advanced - both in the way it hooks the system and in the way it prevents itself from being removed. Here, presents Virus Bulletin's first adware analysis.
Technical feature

In the first part of this article we inspected several problems that are encountered when particular objects are loaded into memory. In this part we will inspect further problems associated with static analysis techniques.
