ande Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Endurance TestResults The Best Protection Programs in All Categories after 10 Tests in 22 MonthsThe final table shows that the protection program from Bitdefender achieved an average of 5.6 of a maximum of 6.0 points in 10 tests run between January 2011 and October 2012 as part of AV-TEST’s ultimate endurance test. The Internet security packages from Kaspersky, F-Secure and Symantec also performed extremely well and are very close behind Bitdefender with average values of 5.4, 5.2 and 5.0 of a maximum of 6.0 points. The best free product, the protection program from Avast, finished in eighth position with an average of 4.6 points, while the second free software tested, namely Security Essentials from Microsoft, only managed twelfth place together with GFI.Source - av-test.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irefay Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 ESET... What the hell? They need to get their shit together. I broke down and bought a 3 computer licence this year. So far it has been causing all kinds of network sharing issues with my homegroup. ESET's response it so keep installing and uninstalling it. And in the AV-TEST Usability was ESET's STRONG point.

Djurba Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 I suggest you to ignore all AV tests , its much better to rely on personal experience. I m using ESET last 2 years , never been infected... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thruba Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 I suggest you to ignore all AV tests , its much better to rely on personal experience. I m using ESET last 2 years , never been infected...I agree. I have been using NOD32 for at least 5 years now and never had an infection whatsoever. It remains light and non-intrusive.Personally, I never trust these so called "AV Tests". I don't know who pays their bills, if you know what I mean...

AlienForce1 Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I suggest you to ignore all AV tests , its much better to rely on personal experience. I m using ESET last 2 years , never been infected...I don`t think that is a wise ideea...You were not infected in all that period because probably you know what you`re doing , but the great majority of PC users don`t have any ideea what is a computer virus , or when to click or not in an e-mail link ... That`s the sad reality ... A PC geek can use it`s computer even without any AV installed and it`s PC can be clean for a long time (even on this forum there are a lot of users that don`t use any AV...) , but these are exceptions .
