Hello,

A couple of days ago I released a G-Data IS 2013 review:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwpR32u7U4A

Anyway, a guy commented saying engine B was avast and engine A was bitdefender(my thinking was the exact opposite, Engine A is avast and Engine B is Bitdefender). So he made a response video that only people with the link could see:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=e0YkARrJ3iw

In my opinion, the response was hard to follow and had virtually no factual information to give and was made entirely of his opinions. I would like peace and know once and for all which engine belongs to which av. Any sources would be appreciated,because I have tried before and was unsuccessful and finding my answer on their site.

This is why people don't like Maths, because it's confusing. :p

I had problems updating Engine A when I first touched G-Data due to my connection. I had to restart it twice to work properly. Still unsure if it was ISP or G-Data itself.

Then again I used the AV version.

And yes, avast is Engine B:)

Thanks everyone, that kind of surpirsed me. I guess it is kind of juvenile to assume engine A is Avast and B is Bitdefender because of their corresponding first letters. :p
