Nice! Microsoft improved greatly! A little bit disapointed in Avast but oh well maybe next month.

Wowww, that VIPRE result. Just a major comeback when I had figured they'd given up on that product years ago. Bit of a shocker for AVIRA, I never not see it in the top 2.

You are right Microsoft has improved.
About Avast i think it did good since has scored more than 98%.
For me a very good result is that of Trend Micro because it has 0 False Positives.Nice to see that.

Vipre uses BitDefender and there own engine BTW, AVG is almost better then Kaspersky

Maybe it's about time people revert to Windows defender!

Kaspersky is the most consistent performer with excellent scores & low FPs across all the tests. Almost all other AVs sometimes come up with little low score or high FPs.
But Yes, at the end of the day all are just tests with some samples so take it with pinch of salt.

A little disconcerting Emsisoft has a large area that replies on user interaction/dependent.

Interesting everything seems change in these instances.

Vipre well agree to see its good performance at all but not expected to make it from the top.
Anyway justifiable because of their features are effective enough.

Meanwhile Bitdefender is next to experience some negligence on the performance but not worst. Joke
