[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 72227, post: 803358"] OSA works well along side Eset, assuming you aren't taking full advantage of the HIPS within Eset. Technically with the HIPS you don't need it, but if you have HIPS set to smart with no other rules, you can use OSA without any issues. I've read through this thread and agree with what others have said. Eset is a very capable program and I really wouldn't worry too much about this particular test, or any other test for that matter. Tests are fun and all, but keep in mind that the real world is very different. Every test should be taken with a grain of salt anyways. You have to keep in mind that there's no such thing as a perfect product. No product can protect you 100%, every product will fail at some point. Just because you may see a product get 100% on a particular test, doesn't mean it will always be like that. All it means is that it got 100% with that particular sample set.The only true way to be 100% protected from ransomware is to backup, backup and backup. Sometimes it's easy to get caught up in the hype in regards to tests and start feeling like you need to change or start adding more protection, but in reality that's far from the truth.
