[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 1026417, member: 7463"] Agreed. But it is far easier for a Pro testing site to just accumulate samples appearing in the Wild that are essentially duplicates (MAAS is, after all, increasingly popular) and others that may actually be malformed than to do analysis on each to verify uniqueness and maliciousness. Although this will obviously juice up the numbers to appease the more is better crowd, it will sadly also dilute the AM effectiveness conclusions. My personal feeling is that the quantity of malware samples used in a test is inversely proportional to conclusions regarding AM product efficacy. However limiting (handpicking) malware samples can also be overdone and may result in the possibility of bias. [/QUOTE]
