1º Eset has had a very good performance ADVANCE + in most tests!!!! Let me reming you G Data is a hybrid with two motors: Bit Defender and Avast.

2º Avira still has too many false positives tested by myself at home!!!! .

3º As a security suite I prefer Kaspersky Internet Security.

4º I use mainly Eset and Kaspersky though I temporarily test some other antiviruses so as to have my own opinion of them.

5º Norton is advancing but I don't trust it enough yet!

I had bad experiences with Avira Premium Security Suite, especially when downloading something from the internet. So I managed to change to Eset. It's lighter on my system but I didn't happy with above result... :frusty: duh!

Thank you for the test and the screenshots with the summary !!! (+1 added)

Kaspersky, Symantec and Avira are the best. As always....

ESET fanboys can see the truth...

F-Secure is the outsider. Great score. Should test it.

PS: Maybe that MSE 2 is good now. Any tests for it ?

ESET scoring Advanced+ in 5 out of 7 tests. I don't see any problems with that. I'm using Avast right now and it sucks IMO. It drastically slows down my system, is not fully compatible with Comodo FW. Has been giving weird problems. Also, catching potentially unwanted programs as trojans and malware. I'm thinking about trying Norton though. Any working fix available for latest AV only?

I'm trying to test this F Secure app but it won't install...I double click on the installer and it closes itself nothing happens :blink:

I'm running windows 7 64 bits edition if anyone knows how to do... :)

I am losing the trust on AV-Comparatives somehow, anyway congratz to F-Secure.

Hmm I think I am going to test it too, cause it seems to be better than I ever thought and that is because I never used it!

Salut / Hello.

Check if it's x64 ready / you have x64 installer.

Try to run it with admin rights, (right click, run as admin).

Check if you have currently security apps which could block it.

Else... Check Events logs...

Just wonder, why don't they add keygens and other fixes and see how many AVs blacklist them as malware. :sneaky:

The 2010 awards is farcical to say the least - they've tried to molly-cuddle the underdogs without safeguarding the interests of end Users:-

We decided to give the award to the program that has made the most progress relative to last year (in order to motivate all manufacturers to keep improving their products). On this basis, the AV-Comparatives Product of the Year 2010 goes to F-Secure.

F-Secure was a front runner about 10-15 yrs ago! it seemed to simply dissapear off the radar for a while, I used to use it all the time back in the day! so it may well be worth trying them out. These days I can't praise Norton enough for what they have acheived over the last couple of years! Avira are good enough but there firewall is so so. Kaspersky above average in all departmentments but wjhatever system ive installed it on it always seems resource hungry! having tested MSE over the last couple of weeks I was happily surprised to see it holding it's own! Avast, bit like avira is above average with it's fair share of false positives! Eset not used in a good while now but always had a decent detection rate with fewer f/p's than most and light on system resources too. GData twin engined bit defender/Avast make of it what you will.

Thanks but it seems there is only one package for 32/64 bits versions...

I've tried to run it with admin rights but it's not better , a windows with the setup opens for about one second and then closes itself , I don't have the time to do anything.Weird I never experienced this with any application I've tried (and I try a lot :D )

I've also tried to exit my Outpost Firewall in case it was because of this but no way too...

I think I'll stay with my good old Nod32 for now :lol:

Anyway thanks for your advices

EDIT anyway when I see this (thanks dcs18)

You are welcome.

Don't not what's wrong with you...

If you want try again check this :

Try to download again the setup.

Maybe your OS which is "old" / bugged or do you have DEP or so enabled ?

Did you check events logs ?

Can you try on an other computer / VM ?

PS: Maybe you installed a crappy hadopi software which destroyed your OS. :lol:

I've tried to download the set up from another place and still the same...

No worries , anyway I always try other AV and I always come back to Kaspersky or Eset.

I don't know why , I don't trust the other ones , even if they are AV of the year :D

"PS: Maybe you installed a crappy hadopi software which destroyed your OS. "

:D

Or maybe the government secret agents came by night to install an Hadopi monitoring software in case of I'd like to download the last album by Britney Spears :ph34r:
