[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 967968, member: 32260"] Of course, you have the right to have your personal opinion about any AV, but there is no need to seek fanboys among people who disagree with you. Also, your preference of Kaspersky over Defender free with default settings is OK. The methodology similar to adopted in video tests was discussed and criticized many years ago, by people from the AV industry (like Eset, Kaspersky, etc.). This discussion caused the testing Labs to adopt AMTSO methodology. The video demonstration tests are as far from this methodology as Earth from the stars. Such methodology cannot be a source for the comparison of many popular AVs. :( For example, if a video test uses 1000 samples, then one of the AMTSO requirements is using 1000 VM snapshots - each snapshot for any single sample. I did not see any video-test based on many samples, that could fulfill even 20% of needed AMTSO requirements. [/QUOTE]
