Real-World Protection Test results for September 2014. These show that in a real-world digital environment with ever-increasing malicious programs, keeping computers secure may prove to be a challenge not everybody is up to.

A total of 23 antivirus products (using all their protection features) were included in the Real-World Protection Test of September.

Petrovic... Thank you for posting this.
 
Surprising results from Trend Micro, their past results haven't been that good.

It's amazing the to see some of the products making wild swings on a month-to-month basis
 
really happy to see trend micro improving and having fewer false positives;)
 
There is such a little difference between the first 7 and I would think Emsisoft is better than where it is placed here.Always a fun time when these get released.Personally I wouldn't base my choice off of this.

I have tried various products, and switched to ESET recently. So far, I like it the best - and I haven't had any problems with it at all, which I can't say about any of the others I've tried. If you cannot afford to buy a product, I'd say Avast free is still the best.

Surprising results from Trend Micro indeed. But I defiantly wouldn't base my decision off of these charts. I would still go for ESET or Emsisoft. For a free solution I'd have to say Avira.
 
Qihoo>>I salute you!!:)

It seems with performance like this there is no need for a paid AV solution!;)
The only one I would pay for, if I had to, would be Kaspersky!:)
