    Read This
    In the end of January 2008 Avira AntiVir was rated 6.5 out of 8 in tests for detection and removal of rootkits and 71% for proactive virus detection by Anti-Malware Test Lab; both scores qualified for "gold" status, the highest award.[2] However, it also received "poor results", the lowest grade, for infection treatment[3] and it failed the self-protection test.[4] Avira received an "Advanced+" for both the February 2008 on-demand test and May 2008 retrospective test from AV-Comparatives.[5]

    Active infections treatment test

    Analysis of antivirus solutions for active infections treatment




    Testing of antiviruses for the treatment of active infections II

    Thu, 10/25/2007 - 08:21 — Sergey Ilyin The antivirus industry of today devotes much effort to preventing virus infections. Various proactive technologies are developed and tested, new threat response times decrease, and detection rates increase. At the same time, the rate at which new kinds of and modifications to malicious programs appear is also rapidly increasing. As a result, no antivirus vendor can guarantee 100% protection to users. Malware infections are still quite common, and very few Internet users have not dealt with a virus at least once.
    To make matters worse, virus writers keep perfecting their software. Some malicious programs are very hard to remove from the computer, because they use various methods to mask their presence in the system (including via rootkits) and to avoid detection and removal by antivirus programs.
    What can be done if a computer is infected? Will an existing antivirus product cope with the problem or will it be necessary to install a competitor’s product?
    In this test, we analyzed the ability of popular antivirus programs to treat active infections -- that is, when a malicious program has been executed and installed on a computer and may be using various methods to prevent detection and removal by antivirus solutions.
    Testing results (September, 2007)

    matcho do u have a latest report, on the above. Now we dont want to confuse our EK guys with old test results do we ?;)

    Kaspersky and NOD32. They got their own way, kaspersky is well balanced and got the highest position among others.

    Nod32 is also known to be one of the best AV. The best thing is, it doesnt eat your pc ram and its also a high performance av software.
