Is it a fact that Symantec takes too long to respond to new virus samples?
I have submited 2 files that virustotal.com reported as being virus from the first day I received them through email (they are from classical Brazilian phishing emails), and the first submission have just completed 7 days without any response from Symantec (and now File Insight considers the file as Good).
The first submission is #38584829 and virustotal rated it 32/54 on 22/8/14.
The second submission is #38610447 and virustotal rated it 13 / 55 today (29/8/14).
BitDefender, McAfee, F-Secure, Qihoo-360, they all recognize the threats.
What's going on here?
