[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 97327, post: 1022459"] When you intent this post as serious, I have some serious questions (the last being the most statistically relevant one : :p ) [LIST] [*]What do the color codes mean? [*]What does the asterix for Microsoft mean? [*]What is the difference between real world thriatlon and biatlon in your categories? [*]When biatlon means those AV-s took only part in 2 out of 3 on what criteria did you exclude missed samples of the AV;s mentioned in Thriatlon? [*]On what basis did you decide that the sample test set of two years testing is big enough to make them relevant for the total malware population in those two years? [/LIST] When this post is to illustrate that we are basically completely in the dark about how well AV's are protectng and how small (statistically) the margins are between the top-ranking AV's (making discussing what is the best or better a non issue), I applaud your humor (y);) [/QUOTE]
