Today German antivirus test lab AV-Test.org revealed the latest results in a series of antivirus certification tests. The current test evaluated each product's suitability for use under Windows Vista; previous tests used XP and Windows 7.
Researchers tested more than 20 products over a period of three months. They scored each product in three areas: protection against attack by malware, ability to repair an already-infected system, and the impact of the software on overall usability. In each area the product could receive up to six points. To be certified for antivirus protection under Windows Vista a product needed a combined score of 12 or higher.
