[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 856820, member: 32260"] If one will accept that they cannot evaluate the AV protection to compare it with other AVs. Such a "test" can be only a kind of demonstration of how the concrete AV works. Testing the AVs must include the proper statistical reasoning which is absent in YouTube "tests". Even when you will analyze all of Leo's "tests", you will not probably get reliable results because it would be very hard to use any statistics for it. Such "tests" can be a hobby, but cannot be taken into account for evaluating the protection of AVs. You can only demonstrate the features used by AVs (which is useful of course). The problem is more general. Ther is no reason to be excited by any concrete YouTube AV protection test with any result (except very poor). Some YouTube tests could be useful for AV vendors to find out the protection bugs in their software. But this is mostly done by performing professional Lab tests. [/QUOTE]
