Improved 64bit PE-file and Bifrost detection, repairs crash bugs

Although the build version increment is pretty shy, Emsisoft Anti-Malware 6.0.0.46 shows important stability improvements. There is no new feature added to the suite, but modifications take care of some serious bugs.

Scanning, quarantine, and the detection engines are the modules that received most of the developer’s attention this time. The fixes and improvements range from eliminating crash bugs (service application and quarantine) to bettering 64-bit PE-file and Bifrost Trojan detection.

Fixes also attended to less important bugs in the two scanning engines (Emsisoft and Ikarus) that achieve one of the best detection rates on the market.

With all the repairs, though, the developer took time to initiate preparations for email scanning, a feature we may see in the next major release of Emsisoft Anti-Malware.

Users can take advantage of the latest fixes by running an online update from within the program or by installing a fresh copy of the product.
