You still don't grasp how the detection works, obviously.

I hate to tell you this, but it's really not hard to write malware 
that won't be detected when you submit it to virus total. What's 
worse, you can even take source code to already existing malware and 
with very little modification, likely compile a fresh sample that 
will not be detected by anything on virustotal. 

Here's the real ass kicker for you to dwell on:

The scenario above is normal; this is exactly HOW it works. AV/AM are 
primarily retroactive in nature. They often don't detect what they 
don't have a signature for.

In many cases these days, the malware samples are server side 
polymorphic (google the term, my patience is low tonight). As they 
are polymorphs, You most likely will not be able to develop a single 
signature that will get all varients of it. And this too, is by 
design.

Your complaints are baseless and unfounded because you really *don't* 
understand how this game is played. How detection/prevention actually 
works and how trivial it really is to evade most of it.

And it means absolutely nothing. That's the thing you don't seem to 
comprehend.
