Theyre getting better and better every year

I really like Kaspersky by the way

Bullguard,e-scan - bitdefender engine - 19 fp / bitdefender - 9 fp

 

[Secondmineboy]

LOL

Avast seems to be working on False positives which is really nice

I would like to know what Avast has planned for their 2016 generations

Im not even sure if i will stick with Avast as AV or if i will go to Kaspersky or Virfree

 

[Maxxx58]

ESET missed 1,4%

 

[Maxxx58]

Kaspersky is still strong

 

[FireShootSK]

Avira only 0,1% missed samples? Very strange.

and 44 FP

 

[Secondmineboy]

Avira has really good signatures

 

[FireShootSK]

Avira has really good signatures

Or a lot of money.

 

[Secondmineboy]

Who knows, i dont think they have alot of money.

Avast has a lot of money 51 percent more in 2014 compared to 2013

Imagine that

Seems the better the antivirus claims they are the more false positives they post ...... look a Baidu, it'll catch everything but it'll drive you nuts also with FP's

 

[omidomi]

Great Kaspersky good job

 

[LabZero]

McAfee Advanced + good !

131189 malware samples were collected on 17 feb 2015. test was done on 3rd march 2015

No malware were executed. Test result shows the malware that were detected on-access and not the on-demand detection.

Bullguard,e-scan - bitdefender engine - 19 fp / bitdefender - 9 fp

The extra FPs come from the inhouse engine... same for Emsisoft.

At least Microsoft WD/MSE is not totally bad at their at least 13% missed samples still it can protect for newer threats, meanwhile nothing really surprise on neck to neck accurate file detection and FP makes them their ratings to downfall at the end of result.

So still I wll go for MS for having zero FP, without any interruptions to my system.

It means you're using Windows Defender?

 

[jamescv7]

It means you're using Windows Defender?

Yes . There should be no problems; I prefer to test the BB/HIPS and others on virtusl environment rather in production system.

Still so much post about "give them money for nice rating",wow. i tought this would stop. av vendors all pay the same amount of money u can research it instead of give false post.by the way,nice avira,realy a keeper with great signatures and avast is still improving. No wonder avast got some realy nice and know ppls into there team over the last years. thats not all what avast will shown in the future.
