[QUOTE="KIKIN, post: 877618, member: 87072"] Apparently [U][B]they use different detection mechanisms of virus detection[/B][/U] ! o_O Since I used a USB DRIVE(Pen drive), I analyzed it separately, [U][I]and the result was:[/I][/U] AVAST: zero (virus). AVG: 4(Virus). :unsure: I'm not indicating which one is better than the other, but if it had the same detection mechanism, the result should have been: AVAST: zero(virus) AVG: zero(virus) or AVAST: 4(virus) AVG: 4(virus):rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
