WTG
Trend, BD, BG, Kaspersky, GData, and F-Secure!

Ahnlab is doing better but still eh...

I still wish Microsoft and Symantec were in these test this year :/
 
If you had given the link to AV comparatives it would have been helpful..

How comes Bitdefender always gets 100% in all AV comparatives test???

Not always but most of the time.
Bitdefender is really good when it comes to protection and detection.
I would use it but I always encounter some type of tech problem when I use it.

Debatable but one cannot forget: don't fully trust such results.
Always take it with a pinch of salt.

Nevertheless, BD/Kaspersky for example are known for high detection rate, but I would not consider BD as a top protection performer. I would instead say Kaspersky has far better results in prevention/protection compared to BD.


Still quite happy with Comodo anyways:) As long as one know how to prevent infections, any solution is doable and will perform well.
 
Something must be wrong with these tests. Trend for the past couple has been up the top :D Good to see my AV of nearly 7 years is doing well. :)
 
Well, have not seen Trend up there so many times in a row, so they must be doing something right :)

Are you saying this because you were shocked to see your AV (trend micro ,I assume) is performing well:D

I am proud to see that BD is on top, among others, because it's a Romanian product and I am from Romania. :D
This being said I am quite happy with my CIS nowadays.
 
Webroot performs very well even if it need more users input than others.
 
Quite a few strong performers, TM up there with the usual suspects lately, Avira seems to be quietly clawing its way back up.

There was a discussion on another forum after a round of AV-C tests about the user input related behavior. It was suggested by a Webroot representative that if you don't act on the popup within the specified timeout, it will be auto-blocked. I haven't tested it myself and if that's really the case, WRSA does look pretty good indeed.

There's also the question if changing the settings to minimize the prompts would affect the interaction? Idea for another WRSA review on MT?

True, also you can set WSA to block automatically

Nah no insider. If you see Bitdefender also tops many other test. Kaspersky is a long term performer. But as I said once if you tweak BD it will become as agressive as threat fire.
The settings have to be maxed out. If you max KIS you sometimes can notice a drag. BD stays light always.
