By not placing this comment here, it would make me prejudice. I like your style of test @safe1st , although there is one issue, and it is not so little, and that is you are also using older Virussign samples, just renamed and file extension changed. These samples are not giving even close to accurate signature detection. If you run them through Virus Total once downloaded, you will see they average around 45 or so engines already detecting them. I understand mistakes happen testing and even when just answering questions, i know i am not without my faults and have produced both at times. But this, right here, we can control and change for the better. Vendors need to be properly represented, as well as us representing ourselves.

It is advised to take all reviews with a grain of salt. In extreme cases some reviews use dramatization for entertainment purposes.

Deja vu.
I highly recommend (for those that review and test products seriously, not those that are looking for a quick cash-in on YouTube revenue) that prior to even executing the malware, upload it onto VirusTotal, go to "Additional Information" and look at the "First submission". If the first submission is over 24 hours ago, you're wasting your time. 12 hours is optimal.
With that said @safe1st, I've always liked your reviews and music choices. Your reviews follow a very formulaic pattern that you've gotten comfortable with showing fluidly on-screen. In theory, you can increase the accuracy of your reviews tenfold by changing one important variable: the malware.
Nicely stated!
@safe1st If you talk to the Hunters in the Hub, they are more then willing to let testers, use their sample packs as long as you give them credit for them in your video. This im sure you will find, is the best method, as it enables you to provide a unbiased test, as you did not pick the samples, no one can claim you intentionally picked samples that would get caught by the product, or bypass it, and also you can very much trust those samples to be fully vetted by the experienced Hunters. It is one course, or i can move this to PM, and show you where and how to grab them and check them yourself if you would rather.

Interesting fact! Maybe you 're right but a lot if not most of MT members claim WD is causing less trouble performance wise in total, than most others. I personally have not done such performance comparison, so I cannot claim anything from my own experience.

You beat me to it, but your right
Dump Eset and run defender and VS and watch your PC run a hell of a lot better
It's probably for the best that I've set my privacy settings that way then. If your takeaway from my entire post was a small sentence that didn't even directly apply to you, then I can see your focus.
