It has been tested recently; look for the "Test for other AntiVirus products", February 2007. ArcaVir scored 82% overall. ( MKS_VIR uses the exact same engine as ArcaVir).
MKS_VIR/ArcaVir is not routinely tested as it does not satisfy the minimum requirement of scoring at least 85% of the normal full test set.
In the future, if it improves its detection rate then maybe IBK will include it in regular testing.

Not entirely correct. See this thread (http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=174273&highlight=arcavir). In my opinion, if they "qualify", it would make sense to test both considering it's been 3 years since they both used the same engine.
