Virus-writers are using increasingly complex and sophisticated techniques in their bid to circumvent anti-virus software and disseminate their viruses. A case in point was the notorious Nimda virus that used multiple methods to spread itself and was based on an exploit rather than on the virus/Trojan behavior that anti-virus products typically search for. Anti-virus software, though essential, cannot combat such threats alone; an email exploit detection tool is also necessary. |
