I'm confused, if it missed blocking all those links, why does MBAM and HMP show computer to be clean?
Also, you show two detection rates: 28.9% on malware pack, and on the 5 Star detection you show 85%?
Can you enlighten me a bit?
Thanks for testing!

The reason is, 25 of the missed links were just websites and not files, so hitmanpro and malwarebytes aren't gonna detect websites because it didn't have files. Since 1 file got blocked, the other 4 files were missed, but 1 missed file was dead when i tried executing it, the other file had 0/47 detection rate, so that file is not bad. Lastly, the last 2 files were bad, but outpost only caught one of them. That one bad file that outpost did not detect was just an application that was in German for you to call people. When you close out of the application, then its gone, so it didn't drop anything anywhere in the computer.

Sorry for this long explanation!lol

So, how many pieces of malware actually infected the machine?
Cheers!

None infected the machine because most of todays links were just malicious websites!

if i were to execute files from the missed files in the 450 file malware pack, the machine would most like be infected.

Bitdefender.
I saw a review of Outpost in a Russian site, they said it was weak against root kits, and some malware were able to partly destroy it's interface.

All i got to say is, i would never go to outpost. were you planning to switch to a free av bc if you want a free Internet security, comodo Internet security would be a good one!

Outpost is a very good firewall,but the av is not very good.
Outpost with avast would be a good combo.
