Hi i have an exe file which is a virus (keylogger in this case). Works fine, however kaspersky and co. say that its a virus. Now i have done some ressearch... i have seen many videos on youtube where people somehow split the original exe into 2 or 3 parts, which seem to fix the "virus found" problem. In some vid i have seen people using encryption, but it didnt help me (yC 1.3).
Is there really a way to remove the annoying alarms?

MOVED - more like darkside than support, but i understand why you posted where you posted. just a note
I have tried that exe splitting myself, doesn't really work. i didnt try much tho, just like 2 tests. if you end up splitting the file right in the middle of the signature, then its impossible to remove it. you split the virus signature and then it wont get detected, but when you put it back together, it does.
theoretically if you find the virus signature that is used by virus database to detect it and then remove it, then it should be undetected. but im not sure, there might be more to it.
encryption only works up to a point when .exe is decrypted, then it gets detected. it is good if you want to send it via email without password protecting it. then it would pass the scan, but as soon as you launch it, then detected.
