[Warning] Can a Virus Scan? Secure Safty to your computer?

[CoderNever]

I was just thinking about it , and I noticed...that yes you can put a virus scan on; that is accurate, and your file can have 0/41 Virus', but alot of hacks are done in programs such as visual basic , which have features that allow the creator of the program to have there program download files from the internet , and place them in a directory in your computer. I Just thought I would warn everyone here , for they can be more strict next time they allow internet access to a program, because the moment you do. It could be downloading virus' and "keyloggers".

what are u saying? im confused

Files Could be %100 clean with no virus', but they could contain codes that can download virus' from the internet to your computer. That would not be detected by any virus scan.

Its cool i understand him.

The reason we require virus scans, is for OBVIOUS shit.

I test everything I approve, (most likely) and have reformatted 3 times testing.

So you should be grateful that precations are being taken.

he is saying that instead of virus scans working they can miss downloaders. but if im correct virus scans pick those up too. so hes just trying to get thanks.

Therefore, we put our utmost effort into checking, scanning, and dissembling these programs.

Don't worry, you're in good hands.
