Virus Issues Update

Trend Micro's online virus scanner also failed to detect the infected file as such.

One annoying thing about Symantec's site is that there is no way for the public to send them virus samples that is readily available.

If you click the link, you either have to be a retail customer or corp customer with contract. Now while we have a contract I don't have the time at the moment to call them up to find out what the website is.

Why not just have a public way of uploading payloads?

Well, after a bit of digging (I knew I had it, I just wasn't finding it easily enough), I've pulled out this link:

http://virusall.com/virussubmit.html Of course, now that I'm actually reading the entry for Symantec, I see what you mean. :( This should help some, although I've clicked on the Kaspersky link, and it's a generic help page, not a specific virus submittal page, so evidently that link is now a bit aged (others that I spot checked are submittal pages though).

That's a shame.

NB-- Good thing I previewed, you stripped my HTML right out of there! :)
