I agree with some posters above. Whenever a lab test comes out, I see a lot of:
"What?! This is wrong! My AV should be #1!" or "I don't like 'insert AV brand', they shouldn't be higher than my current AV".
Look, they are just tests. I tend to believe at least one of them is bound to be honest. I'm sure they have more skill and tools than me...so I tend to place some weight into them.
The testing methods between Lab 1 and Lab 2 may be widely different. Could be the reasons why scores are a little off between them. Hell, it could have been an lucky selection of tough malware that month....idk.
I like how they separate the detection into catagories. It shows you a sig, then BB, then how fast they respond in 24hrs, then a miss. It gives a good overview of the product being tested.
