About Antisource
Antisource.com started as a project several years ago as a way to consolidate AntiVirus information and provide it to systems administrators. After a 6 month antivirus comparison for my present employer, my report revealed how scattered all of these sources of information were.
As my tasks evolved into more time spent combatting spam, I then added AntiSpam to Antisource's list. The relationship seemed natural as many more worms were setting up smtp engines and using email to spread themselves.
More recently, spyware and adware became the biggest nuisance. These almost virus-like programs are difficult to remove and sometimes hard to spot, and first made their ways into networks via iMesh and Kazaa installs. Now that administrators have tightened their security policies and thrown more tools into the mix, spyware took a turn from passive bloat to blatant malicious intent. This new breed of "malware" now installs itself from simply visiting a website. So now AntiSpyware (or all AntiMalware) has made it onto Antisource's list. Again the relationship between malware and viruses seem natural.
