Anyone knows when AV-comparatives will released may comparison?

[Subgud]

Anyone?

[Sjoeii]

Probably beginning of June

[SweX]

And as always everyone is excited to see who will be the number one performer:D

[nikanthpromod]

GDATA or Panda would be no1 in malware detection.:isay:

im also waiting.
But im not going to use any of those AVs :P

We will see it soon;)

[sg09]

I have heard some complains that Avira's detection is failing. Lets see...

[falkor]

December ! LOL

[smage]

I already know the results.lol

Avira 1st
Kaspersky 2nd
ESET 3rd

Panda and Mcafee will not do well as the test is conducted offline.

Avira 1st
GDATA 2nd
ESET 3rd
Kaspersky 4th

:) :)

[Edwin024]

I like to throw NIS2010 quite high in the results ;)

[sg09]

My prediction
Detection-wise
1. GData
2. Avira
3. Panda
4. Trustport
5. McAfee

Oh yes, I forgot about GData.lol

[AvinashR]

-{ Quote: "Oh yes, I forgot about GData.lol" }-

I guess this time GData will be 1st...because it has a strong Behaviour Blocker in 2011 edition. :D

No, the behaviour blocker of GData is new - I can't believe that it's really strong ::)

Panda will score high but I guess with a lot of FP ...

No you are absolutely wrong...I have tested GData's BB and i found it pretty much strong. And i can bet upon this !!

About Panda, i can't comment...Offline Detection rate of Panda is very much low...

I think they will use the paid version of Panda AV, that have offline protection too... I also has a good heuristic and also causes high FP.

[gery]

GDATA
AVAST
FSWCURE
KASPERSKY
MSE
AVIRA
AVG


But i stil love my AVG lol;D ;D ;D ;D

-{ Quote: "Avira down the table...!!!!" }-

... it depends on whether the last update worked or not :D Sorry ...

[acr1965]

Will be interesting to see how well Avast 5 does. Also curious about PC Tools and TM, although I don't plan on using either of those two. Sophos could be a dark horse. I'm assuming all from the Feb. test are back again.

[sg09]

When Emsisoft, Vipre, Virusbuster, CA, Dr.Web will be added to list....???

Also this years Dynamic test will be worth to watch.

They are using Panda AV Pro 2010 which have offline protection. If you are talking about heuristics than i want to you to reconsider it again...No offence against Panda AV but i found a very low detection rate while it was offline ..

Completly disagree. I used to consider panda av in past as a bloatware and a program with low detection rate. But few months ago I installed panda 2010 and I was surprise by their heuristics . I seen maaany samples detected by it as as suspicious while only few others vendors detected something malicious.
I was surprise by the level of proactive defense in this program. Many of my samples where catch by heuristic or by behavior module (as well as a collective intelligence while i was online).

F-Secure
and i forgot to mention BitDefender among those :thumb:

I can hardly wait to see what I need to dump, and change to.;D ;D

May be you are right at your place....But do consider last AV comparative results too where Panda have scored about 73.3% while it was offline. Even i have tested it with 7000K+ samples and it detected about 80% only while offline...:)

I agree that Panda Collective Intelligence is far more better than many other AV's cloud tech., but they still need to work on their offline detection database as well as on Heuristic scanner.

[ALiasEX]

We are talking about the Proactive/retrospective test aren't we?

Then, surely, the BB of G Data won't come into play. It's also why Norton will score near the bottom of the list again.

Yeah you are right...I was confused @ that time :P ..My mistake.:)

[AvinashR]

BTW any guess on K7 Total Security & Trend Micro ?

[sg09]

-{ Quote: "BTW any guess on K7 Total Security & Trend Micro ?" }-

I yet to try out K7 AV...*puppy* Btw, anyone knows about their engine? Is it their in-house?
My opinion about Trend micro is mixed. I am sure it will score good at dynamic tests but in other tests I doubt.:doubt:

[AvinashR]

-{ Quote: "I yet to try out K7 AV...*puppy* Btw, anyone knows about their engine? Is it their in-house?" }-

They are using their In-House engine !!

May in which year ? ;D

May 2110 :)

-{ Quote: "Probably beginning of June" }-

I remember reading a post from IBK where he mentioned that there will be more Dynamic tests - what actually matters . Awaiting Dynamic tests .

The one that is about to appear soon (part of Main tests) is the proactive test which is not that important because of the methodology used

I guess they'll publish dynamic test at the end of this year...Earlier also they have published it at the end of 2009.

[falkor]

Why do so many here care about predicting ? Sheesh . The OP wanted to know when to expect results . Maybe a post about predictions would be better as people like myself will not have to wade through the worthless predictions to see if anyone can answer the question ? Someone PLEASE hurry up and make an A vs B post in here so this can close .8) 8)

[0strodamus]

Someone should call -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3ABE3wvxzA- Miss Cleo. She'll know! ;D

[falkor]

^^;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

[steve1955]

my prediction:-some users on here will be over the moon because their chosen av products will have done well other users on here will be a bit down for a little while because their chosen product has done badly but after a little while and a bit of reflection they'll be posting on here as to how the test is flawed and the results are unreliable,the moto being you'll be happy if your product does wel and you'll also be happy if it doesn't because that is down to poor testing!

[kjdemuth]

Oh that would never happen! ::)

[falkor]

Not tested the K7 but Trend Micro is good in detection interms of it web guard like module :)

[AvinashR]

-{ Quote: "Not tested the K7 but Trend Micro is good in detection interms of it web guard like module :)" }-

Oh i c

BTW i agree that K7 is not very much strong against 0day infections...

[sg09]

-{ Quote: "

So, you have tested K7. You mean it's Heuristics/BB are not that good? But how is it's on-demand detection?

[smage]

-{ Quote: "I guess this time GData will be 1st...because it has a strong Behaviour Blocker in 2011 edition. :D" }-

No the next test will be an on demand static test, so behaviour blockers will not be taken into account. Undoubtedly Avira will defeat GData.

We'll have to wait for the AV-C Dynamic tests to see behaviour blockers and SONAR(for Symantec) taken into account.

Panda, Mcafee and Norton will be at the bottom.

1. Gucup
2. Twister
3. The Shield Deluxe

Gucup is worth a review!!! I think it has a very limited database.


And to all, it's june dude, May be they will release that in next May.:o

[trjam]

the results should be soon I would think. I always look for that Advance+ rating. Overall, that is the sign of the excellence for me. :thumb:

[Ibrad]

I agree (with the soon part) :argh:

Man, MSE is turning out to be one heck of a free product. Avast looked like crap.

-{ Quote: "Man, MSE is turning out to be one heck of a free product. Avast looked like crap." }-

Man you are right. One heck of a free product. I uninstalled my long time Avira product and installed MSE (and I don't change often) based on the fact that worm detection (at least in this latest test) is great for MSE and not so good for Avira. Avira used to excel in proactive detection- but something has happened recently to make that not the case. I know a lot of this is at the margin, but the margin if often where you find infections. The more protection the better as long as there is not significant system performance degradation.

Let's keep the discussion going in the Av-Comparatives: Retrospective/Proactive Comparative May 2010 (http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=274413) thread. Thanks!
