It says this test was in March. The AV vendors which were missed could have upgraded their engines by now.

Thanks for posting that is very interesting.

I don't trust any of these tests.

 

[MikeV]

To be honest i don't trust these ''independent'' tests that gives Bitdefender & Kaspersky 100% detection in most tests.
TOO good to be true.
I only trust online tests by specific persons and of course of what i have tried the last years

You forgot to mention tiranium...

 

[Tony Cole]

Is tiranium any good, or does it use VT? I'm confused

Tiranium does detect malicious files correctly, but as for the VirusTotal thing you'd be better off asking the admins/staff or Dubseven himself. There is no point posting it on the threads anymore because every time someone does it (I admit, I have done it in the past) a massive argument kicks out and the results aren't pretty. So im not going to say anything about whether it does or doesn't, but yeah, contact the admins/staff or @Dubseven if you want to know. They know best.

 

[Tony Cole]

Did Dubseven invent/work for Tiranium?

As far as im aware, he invented it.

I don't trust any of these tests.

Neither do I. Bitdefender, 100%? Last month I downloaded a bunch of malware packs off random websites (I know, crazy but I was in a virtual machine) and I compared Bitdefender with Emsisoft and Emsisoft detected 39/42 of the threats and bitdefender only go 33/42...

 

[Thunderbold]

Norton is leaved this test they thinking it's not fair

 

[WinXPert]

I don't trust this kind of tests too.

 

[illumination]

Is it just me, or are these test always looking the same month after month

Seriously, one can not rely on these..

 

[WinXPert]

there is a subtle pattern. lol

may be it's just a ploy to condition consumers' minds and have nothing to do with the effectiveness of the AV. call it scripted

They are the same almost every time.

Maybe their getting bribed by the AV companies to make others look bad and them look good...

 

[WinXPert]

An interesting question is, who's providing the samples? The batches must be tailor made to make a select few perform impressively and others do a what we call "epic fail"
