Trend is trending.

 

[Nedim]

Anyone have a spare license for Trend?

Surprising results from Trend Micro, their past results haven't been that good.

 

[Anupam]

except for panda, this is the first time the result is looking like what I personally feel.

 

[omidomi]

Good job trend micro.

It's amazing the to see some of the products making wild swings on a month-to-month basis

 

[rebel4life]

how come 360 IS getting good results when they last update was a few months ago

 

[tonibalas]

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.

 

[Surtur]

F-Secure Holy smoke ! 66 False Positives.

 

[Malware Man]

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!

Last update was few days ago actually. Though it's not showing in the webpage but the installed you get is the updated one.
