RE: Symantec to identify safe software by 'reputation'

I worked on this section of symantec's products last years. my guess this is very closely related to their initative on the safe web stuff (site advisor copy).

they test everything on backend (crawl the web) then test one by one. that is intalling uninstalling all that. they might be producing hashes and checking it against the backend unsafe list.
