Avast,Emsisoft,MBAM and DefenseWall manage to get all the 4 malware samples...so congrats.
Good job to all but +1 to Emisisoft who performed great since all this test begun.

Did MRG change their methodology when testing security products?I've noticed that Norton has failed a few times...which isn't very Norton-ish....

Seems from past days Avast was managed to detect the 4 samples while others (except Emsisoft) were failed to complete 4 samples.

Microsoft result made me chuckle.

LOL
always like that, not improving malware detection
great for avast and malwarebytes (free programs but great)

Microsoft is inept. How can it even be possible not to detect a single threat?!

 

[jamescv7]

Microsoft is one of the bottom on the test which so many failure of samples.
