[el el amiril 0]

Hello dear admin and eset community i ran a checking with the comodo free av and uploaded it on virustotal it shows 2 av detection but when i open it with hex editor and removed some zeros that were in group and save it and uploaded it on virustotal now it shows 4 av detection here is the link https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/ff8dfc588b2116bb62928af3cc12e0d4f4f714763cd1064572eb54dc8bef5e97/detection

 

im planning to used it on my  company office desktop and my internet security does not detect it also i have a bunch of crack games from popcap but i no longer used them and removed them from my pc after editing those exe in hex editor there were bunch of greyware and trojan result mostly six result in virustotal but not being detected by eset??

What can i adjust in the settings for it to deeply scan through those files?? those zeros where significant threat😔

dear eset admin is there an option to scan thoroughly those code as it might put risk in computer system which eset is protecting not just for crack but for genuine apps whose website might have been hijacked as not all website gives their apps sha1 or md5?

By removing the zeros, you've turned turned all those executables into binary junk that doesn't even run. That some AVs detect these things, shows that those AVs are not very good (to put it nicely).

im not really good at programming i only assume it since pc security channel claims it

So those files are fine im trying to install av that is free for my office desktop currently i don't want to pay .

Also, where you get the file    cispro_installer.exe? Free Comodo installer is called cav_installer_blahsomething.exe. Out of curiosity I uploaded it to virustotal and there are no detections on it.

Since you modified it brother , you broke the signature, you modified the contents as then the signature of the maker is broken

This will give an indicator to A.I scanners that this file might be malicious.

Because the A.I usually knows this software/installer as trusted and signed , then suddenly you uploaded it differently and unsigned , it will look suspicious to the Bots(A.I).

The new un-modified installer that you uploaded got 2 detections , those are false-positives , the A.I might detect them because installer is new , it might feel it's a bit suspicous

once you played with the HEX and added ZEROs, 2 more A.I hated your modification and found it suspicious and also you broke the signature of the developers.

 

Since I was marked as a solution , I may be wrong or not 100% accurate , if I am mistaken , please correct me
