I saw earlier that video Chris refers. Its an interesting demonstration.
But its not aimed for bypass an AV with "online" or resident protection
apparently. Anyway its an nice alternative for bypassing mail servers
with AV protection.

Hey Jim,

you might be interested in one of the recent schmoocon presentations.
In the presentation, the presenter demonstrates exactly how to modify
an already compiled exe to bypass signature based AV detection using
assembly XOR encoding and decoding.

The video is located here:

http://www.shmoocon.org/2008/videos/

It's called backtrack demo.

The site appears to be down right now though...  Odd.

Hi
I'm researching the various ways to hide netcat from AV

The most success I've found is with an idea I got from the new Syngress
netcat book.
basicly add a commented out text block near the top of netcat.c and
recompile
I tried this with about 20 lines of random hex and uploaded it to
www.virustotal.com with great success.

Has anyone had success with exe encryptors? I've tried telock  and it seems
to have little effect on AV detectability.

Jim
