Nice. Well done Avast, good to see.

Norton's IPS is usually very good. As you said, can't win them all.

I noticed AVG out defended Avira. Looks like a fluke to me.

Panda,MBAM and Prevx are the only vendors who manage to miss all the Exploits.
How do they run this tests ? any methodology guide?

The overall results out of the 52 tests seem to indicate MBAM as the leader....
DefenseWall has 52 Passed and 0 Failed..but to be fair they are protecting the system in a different way.

-.- Where is Trend Micro?
