Surprisingly bad results for AVG.

Surprisingly bad results for AVG.

Not that bad I would say : the user dependent settings can do the trick, it's probably a better setting up of AVG protection settings.

[uffbros]

Why are you surprised at AVG? That has always been garbage. It is considered a virus in the tech world!!!!

[eurobyn]

avg is all virus all virusses for free

in dutch alle virussen gratis.

Kaspersky is the best and bitdefender too but bitdefender showed 10 false positives

It looks to me that about 92% of malware is blocked "out of the box" by Windows. I can get by the other 8% with Sandboxie, an on demand scan/virus total and just a little common sense. If my system does get compromised it just takes a few minutes to restore it with AX64 backup stored on external drive and a boot CD. I just dont see the need. g/l have fun.

I think that I read that Symantec does not agree with the way they test so they do not get tested.

Kaspersky :)

I agree if you know how to use sandboxie you are pretty much protected :)
