This test shows how an antivirus behaves with certain threats, in a specific environment and under certain conditions.
We encourage you to compare these results with others and take informed decisions on what security products to use.
Before buying an antivirus you should consider factors such as price, ease of use, compatibility, and support. Installing a free trial version allows an antivirus to be tested in everyday use before purchase.
Yeah. I think this is a great ideaAV products will give different results every time they are tested. For example, Microsoft may be best one month while Kaspersky may be best another month. You cant gain much knowledge from a single set of results.
For this reason, I think its a good idea to see how a product has scored over the last 2 years and also compare the results of different testing laboratories. That way you can get a better idea of which products are consistently good and which are consistently bad.
Unfortunately I don't think there is a single place where all this information is summarised.

I'll take lightness in terms of system impact any day of the week over an AV which gets 100% results in these tests so ESET it is for me.Its okay to count false positives in these tests but protection is the main thing. In home environments false positives hardly exists, i can bet that avast bb causes more problems in home environments than it competors.
I can remember times back in 2010 when my friends were using f-secure as main antivirus and it basically flagged everything as false positive like daily it happened, f-secure has since matured alot
Trend micro can be very aggressive and even more aggressive when hypersensitive is on & high filter on webfilter ( you can harden it even further)
Sad to see eset getting only 1 star but its still excellent product

Avast beating Eset and Kaspersky is a shock.
Hello @jetmanAV products will give different results every time they are tested. For example, Microsoft may be best one month while Kaspersky may be best another month. You cant gain much knowledge from a single set of results.

Are they using the default settings or are playing with the settings under advanced settings ,protections,detection responses.It seems quite strange to me that Eset has come last of all the antiviruses, perhaps there are hidden interests in these tests. I think that perhaps Eset is not the best but coming last seems surreal to me.
I love Eset
"bad" seems very relative by missing 1.8% or 9 of 513 IIRC with 0 false positives, while ALL of AV that did better also had very-bad false positives. Seems like there could be / is a strong negative correlation between compromised vs false positives, but don't know if this is causation evidence Is that discussed by AV-C? I guess AV-C acknowledges some interaction as it does / can otherwise lower their AV rating depending on false positives. @Andy Ful any thoughts about this...Eset had a bad day. Although they should really improve their 0-day capabilities.
The products were tested in default settings and no, you don't need to change any ESET's settings. There are sensitivity settings in advance settings, but those are set to values that ESET thinks are appropriate for their products that would result in less false positives and better performance. ESET wouldn't put their product into tests if they didn't think the default settings weren't enough.Are they using the default settings or are playing with the settings under advanced settings ,protections,detection responses.
The detection responses need to be all put on which they are not by default it makes a big difference.
Anyone else test this out?
