In my opinion isn’t that good, I prefer Avast, also check VTZilla, addon for Firefox, is pretty good for scanning files.

I am surprised that Avira or Karspersky didn’t catch it.

Within 2-3 days of the initial announcement, all antivirus vendors had the problem covered. The problem is not one that can be found when downloading. It can only be found when the file is saved to disk and then run by the browser. That is when every antivirus should have picked it up.

If you are worried about your antivirus not being able to find all of the problems (none are) make sure you run a separate Intrusion Detection System (such as Threatfire).

Another GREAT anti-virus software that works is Avira Antivir! Too bad it wasn’t listed here.

Whatever this is actually uninstalled Stopzilla, disabled Malwarebytes and started using my email account to send SPAM emails and redirected every Firefox page to adware. Happily, Norton stopped the emails from being sent, but couldn’t stop the trojan. Hard drive is in the shop being wiped. Very nasty little bug!

I’m kind of bummed to see that Kapersky wasn’t on your list. And to think I switched from Avast. Ughh!
