0veR Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Looks like ESET failed to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeetPirate Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Looks like ESET failed to.Serves them right. They should focus on malware protection instead of bloating their products with useless features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alanon Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 They tested the new Webroot colud based suite. Didn't do half bad. :lol: Reached Advanced. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxhedroom Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Hmmm...PC Tools is new and generally doesn't get good reviews but it seems to be pretty good at removal...strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7even Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Why curious? It's just a partial test. See the caption:These tests focus only on the malware removal/cleaning capabilities, therefore all used samples are samples that the tested Anti-Virus products are able to detect. It has nothing to do with detection rates or protection capabilities. Of course, if an Anti-Virus is not able to detect the malware, it is also not able to remove it.The main question is if the products are able to successfully remove malware and its leftovers from an already infected/compromised system. The test report is aimed to normal/typical home users and not Administrators or advanced users that may have the knowledge for advanced/manual malware removal/repair procedures.I'm sure PC Tools will fail when it entered the Whole Product Dynamic Test. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morteza Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Norton is good in : Firewall,Dynamic tests,removal and performance.Only False Positive is high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweety.Abd Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Norton is good in : Firewall,Dynamic tests,removal and performance.Only False Positive is high.Exactly, that is why I reverted back to Norton Internet Security 2012 :) But the false positive can be cumbersome at times, but I'm just going to live with that.

dre009 Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Kaspersky forever and beyond, their need to do some more work on the fake AVs though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweety.Abd Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Kaspersky forever and beyond, their need to do some more work on the fake AVs thoughKaspersky is really good, but Symantec can do the same job using lower resources. One advantage of Kaspersky would be it's very few false positives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One advantage of Kaspersky would be it's very few false positives.Thats one of the major problem i have with norton, i have a whole drive full of files that norton detect as FP. It was a headacheso you are right, its one of the major reason for choosing Kaspersky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
