I find the results very strange as almost all of the AV's false positive detection has increased, Bitdefender and Kaspersky are the only ones with no change!

I have not ever tried Panda Free. What is the characteristic feature of Panda Free that makes it so strong?

Im pretty sure its the Cloud detection. normal heuristic isnt that good in panda. So internet connection is a must if someone use panda

The tested one is Panda Cloud Free or Panda Paid software?
FPs rate are high in this test for some products.

Why are Baidu and Tencent on there but Qihoo isn't? Because they didn't beat the Kaspersky-Bitdefender-Avira trifecta...

cf. http://www.pcworld.com/article/2919...-stripped-of-rankings-in-antivirus-tests.html

The three antimalware firms said they found "some unexpected flags within [Baidu and Tencent] products, marked with the names of several test labs and implying some difference in product behavior depending on the environment they were run in."

However, only Tencent has been found to be gaming the antimalware tests, according to the antimalware firms.

Qihoo may not be allowed for tests any more, as last time they were caught cheating!

 

[Rolo]

If you actually read the article or even the quote box, all three of them were accused of cheating with Tencent the only one having been caught.

Same names as always, and for Panda well isn't surprise at all because long time before their performance is a 'so-so' like a literal 'Panda' chewing a bamboo in such idle time.

Its still so inconsistent where Windows OS baseline protection is so high then differ from other test organizations + encouraging to change AV which 90% could be sufficient on all around matters.

I can't say my quick test of Panda 2016 beta yielded anywhere near that kind of result (was the worst I've tested so far--OK BD free I think was worse--detecting far less than Qihoo, Avast, Comodo, Emsi). 2015 doesn't run on Win10.
