Dear Eduardo,

This no-parsing/ParsingSafe technology is actually Sandboxing [1].
How do you know ? Reads not really like it,
Is there anybody from nruns that is reading this list ? Maybe they can
comment on their own solution ??

BTW they keep repeating this:
...
In order to protect the aps-AV itself from attacks, it has been
completely written in highly secure managed code ( C#) , thereby
reducing its attack surface to an absolute minimum.

Apparently they happen, as the guys from n.runs seem to have invented
some sort of solution for this problem, rendering attacks on AV
impossible (??) they call it aps-AV :
"Protects your company from malware threats (Worms, Virus, Trojans..),
aps-AV reuses your existing Anti-Virus software and supports multiple
Anti-Virus engines. aps-AV increases the malware detection rate
through the diversity and heuristics of these multiple engines.
However unlike the competition,  aps-AV does not increase the remotely
exploitable attack surface."
