Its realy, realy hard to read the "Rating: Excellent" from avast with the white theme. Can u maybe change it to another color? Anyway, nice review and nice from avast and emsisoft. Both are exelent products. Avast just need abit of tweaking for nice protection.
 
Bravo! excellent and interesting test! thank you!:)
Strange that Avast only detected 10 on scan....:confused:
Would have liked to see Emsi s behavioural detection capabilities...maybe next time;)
 
Strong performance from both AV's:eek::). As i can see avast needs improvement on signatures but on the other hand has improved a lot their 0-day protection which is good;).
Emsisoft seems to be a top notch AV and a very good choice for protecting our pc:D.
Great review Manzai and very informative:)
