I have many viruses that PcTools Antivirus is not detecting. Where can I submit them ?
Is there any webpage or e-mail address?

Hi
There are two places:
www.pctools.com/mrc/submit - PC Tools Malware Research Centre
www.threatexpert.com/submit.aspx - PC Tools ThreatExpert engine
You can also archive them in a zip file (use a password like infected) and email them to support@pctools.com with the password in the text of the email.
Hope that helps

Hi
How did you zip the files? Just a plain zip with a password?

Hi
Can you try it with .zip not .rar?

Bump.
Some sort of answer to this would be appreciated. Submitting samples in bulk to ThreatExpert is not exactly practical right now.
Here Is The Best Online File Scanner I know. www.virustotal.com
Hope it helps
