Excel Zero-Day Update

NOD32 now detects attempts to exploit the Excel vulnerability announced June 16th. This means that even if an attacker tries to use the exploit to download a virus or trojan that no product in the world detects, NOD32 will prevent the vulnerability from being exploited. No download means no threat to NOD32 users. NOD32 is even protecting users against threats that our heuristics do not even detect yet!

    Very well thought out and informative. I’m sure many others enjoy reading this too, but are just a little scared to post – anyway – thanks again!
