Good test, although the results were expected.
Ashampoo has released some good software at a very good price, why they jumped into the AV market is confusing because they have some software that if they focused on those would be quite good. Anyway just my honest opinion. PeAcE

then it will lag on system or antivirus crashed. I dont want make something unusual :D
imagine, how many links on the test.. means same how many tabs will be opened
Well, on a normal PCs you're bound to have atleast 5 to 10 tabs. So, why give an Antivirus too much of a break, after all, there are some sites that'd open like 5 to 10 tabs without your permission :p

Not a bad product, because of Bitdefender Engine, but again useless because it has no (execept from that one beharviour protection there) kind of good zero-day component. So again, this is a product which I would not buy because of better (free) alternatives.

Great review again, thanks for sharing it with us. :)

I tested this soft in Malware Hub some months ago and virus detection rate on day 0 was low, it took between 24 and 48 to be really competitive compared to other antivirus

True,the same story with most of the fringe players these days, slow to update, especially when they depend on another's signatures.

Reminds me of orange defender.:D

Thanks for the testing @safe1st

Yes thats it.. Even using BD engine not always good like BitDefender products, because theres a delay in signatures update.

safe1st,
it would be interesting a comparison to make!
Ashampoo AntiVirus 2016 VS Emsisoft Anti-Malware
I believe that a prevention and detection test
when the signature and the behavior module
Differences displays.

test In Past here at MalwareTips
were significant differences to see.

regards, Dark
