If you are familiar with HEX EDITING servers for hacking computers using remote trojans that have been tagged and are detectable by common antiviruses. You can hex edit your remote trojan to not be detected by an antivirus. Without explaining this difficult process I will say Kaspersky is a pain in the neck to get past! BEST AVP you can get is Kaspersky! You were on the right track using it. I have used stealthed trojans, and norton and mcafee wont detect them, and I run it on a kaspersky machine and it doesnt detect it, then after a little while of messing around in themachine sending commands to the remote machine BOOM .. it detects it as a generic trojan. I hate it as much as I love it personally. Good thing not everyone uses it though
