[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 983155, member: 32260"] Webroot SecurityAnywhere is tested for a few years by AVLab. The methodology is very similar. Here are the results compared to a few other AVs. AVLab (over 17 000 samples in 16 tests, July 2019 - November 2021) The table contains the missed samples in these tests: .............................MONTH:.. J......S.....O...N....j....m...M...J....S....N....j...m...M...J....S....N..

The AVs can score 100% several times and suddenly terribly fail on tenths of samples.
