    Black Day to Kaspersky, vulnerable again, again exposes users and serial data

    t is known by many as February 7, 2009 I found a SQL Injection vulnerability in Kaspersky USA . When security sites and databases Kaspersky has been audited by an uber specialist, David Litchfield . But it seems that the story of vulnerabilities continue … This time parameter is vulnerable on a page in Malaysia and in Singapore . The vulnerability affects all databases in Southeast Asia.

    too bad. Still I have good faith on them and I can't change my opinion because of 1-2 odd incidents. Hope they would have fixed this problem by this time.

    That is bad. but i still trust Kaspersky and 1-2 freak incidents like this are not going to make me jump ship. I mean incidents like this happen with others also, you cant expect anything to be totally perfect, right ?
    If nothing else works, open command prompt and type 'del C:\Windows'

    Something similar had happened once before....if you still trust Kaspersky, use their products. If not, make the switch to something else....

    As for me, I've never heard of such things happening with Avira (my favorite brand for AV)....
    They call me the mysterious one...
    my motto is...when it's hot, chill baby
