I've been testing the best virus scanners for my new system. I have a single file I have confirmed is infected with a virus, that I keep zipped and use for testing purposes. When I place it in various places of several of my internal hard drives, Bitdefender always drills down finds it no problem.
I just did a full system scan and a contextual scan with Malwarebytes Pro that I purchased (with scanning within archives enabled) and it doesn't see it. But it did falsely mark several OK programs as "Potentially Unwanted."
I only use Malwarebytes for on-demand contextual scanning (not real-time protection). But if it won't see this file I'm trying to get it to find, of what use is this program anymore?
Would like to hear thoughts.
