Hmmm, Microsoft's free Security Essentials did very well compared to the others in this test.

Sorry if this is a dumb question.

If the on demand test which is signatures only a AV product gets say 98% and misses 2%

Then on a heuristics test it catches 50%.

So the 2% on demand that is missed has a 50% chance of catching those samples. Does that make it 99% effective?

not necessarily.... google "Tejon Crypter 1.3". This is only a example... but show that AV's is being obsolete technology...
