Microsoft has the largest collection of datacenters in the world for distributing downloads, how do you think they easily copy with +16billion Windows machines downloading Windows Updates on the same day?
It only takes two hours to create a backdoor Trojan and embed it in the torrent release as a few threads on the forum have mentioned last week, I have a UAC/Vista/Windows 7 compatible keylogger that I created in two hours and Virus writers are smarter then myself...The problem is the antiviral company's will not have a signature for that Trojan or anything they embed because their not downloading torrent releases and scanning them for hidden surprises and you wouldn't know if they did include something because its beta software and you have no idea what should or shouldn't be there
My keylogger doesnt get detected so I would say the same for anything new they create and embedd in the release (I created it as a proof of concept to evaluate the damage they can cause, thankfully its only limited to the account that executes the application instead of all accounts or the whole machine
so UAC does its job perfectly) Ill wait for the official release that I can be sure doesn't contain any hidden surprises
