Hmm...The test results fluctuate quite a bit. It seems the stable top winners are Trend Micro Anti-Spyware, Webroot Spy Sweeper, PC Tools Spyware Doctor, Sunbelt CounterSpy...

Perhaps when they get around to checking an up to date version....results might be somewhat different :-\

Hope they will be testing new versions of Spy Sweeper, Spyware Doctor and Ewido in the next round...

I hope so.
But that is disappointing considering my impression that Ewido 3.5 is top notch.

Hi, folks: Do you know why Has Ewido fallen behind the others on this test? It is the fault of the new owner; Ewido was originally an anti-trojan app, and had been until the day it was sold out to the COMPANY, and subsequently was facelifted and ID changed to anti-malware,then antispyware. The tester branded this ill-fated app with new rivals and failed the test misesably. It was an anti-trojan app and is a such now and will remain as a such in the future. That is why products such as Trojan Hunter, BOclean ets were not included in that test.

Ewido had been stronger in anti-trojan than in anti-spyware and it need to catch up a bit.
