Q: There are two products with 100% detection rate, but one got a protection score of 6.0
points and the other one got just 5.5 points.
A: The reason is the rounding of the detection rates. The product with 6.0 points has detected
100% and the product with 5.5 points only detected 99.6%, which is rounded to 100%.

Isn't that a little silly doing the scoring that way?

Those samples isn't myriad to produce more due on its OS environment thus most AV's could get easier to detected it.

Seems Comodo mobile version made pay back time to be consistent.

why is Zoner AntiVirus not in the list ?

I emailed AV-Test and ask them to include it in the next round of testing. Might listen if several people wrote requesting Zoner.

It will be depend from the security company itself if AV-test request could be granted to join for another round of worldwide test.
