[QUOTE="Adrian Ścibor, post: 978096, member: 71496"] I have got something diffrent information when it comes to fail result for Avira since 2020. For example: January 2022> [URL="https://avlab.pl/en/recent-results/"]Recent Results - Advanced In The Wild Malware Test[/URL] 10 samples missed by Avira. November 2021: 33 missed by Avira: [URL="https://avlab.pl/en/results-november-2021/"]The November 2021 Results - Advanced In The Wild Malware Test[/URL] ... Additionally, the value to vendors is not only the results, but also the malware detection errors found. Thanks to that, almost every two months our tests fix something in the tested products. This makes you more secure. ... The discussion keeps coming back from Andy every time then MD is tested. In his opinion the MD should not be tested on the default settings. In my opinion is completely different -> if a vendor is not willing or able to configure their antivirus better by default, let them not expect it from a normal user who is not technically literate. To compare several products with each other, you need to give them the same conditions. I don't want to repeat the same thing over and over again :) [/QUOTE]
