I dont think they have that category either. Its a bit confusing now that I look at it closer. What a mess. Never used Download.com and now that I've seen it closely, I think I never will. ![]() P.S.: But, hang on, I think I have but coming from the authors portal of some program. Dont remember which one. |

We are fundamentally incompatible with how many of the testing organizations perform their tests, however some recent reviews/tests can be found at: http://pxnow.prevx.com/zeroL/PCMag_Review.pdf http://www.softpedia.com/reviews/win...w-112112.shtml http://www.prnewswire.co.uk/newsinde...ease?id=256969 http://www.infoworld.com/d/security-...s-evil-web-589 (this last one is about Prevx 2 using an older version of our community database, but its still a valid test) Note that the PC Magazine review is actually probably the first "correct" review of Prevx software because of their testing methodology.

The engine on VirusTotal is a very simplistic version of our engine and works only on a blacklist with limited heuristics. |

For what it's worth, you may want to pick a different review to read if you want pertinent information on Prevx 3.0 as Prevx 3.0 was 100% rewritten from Prevx 2.0 (no code exists from the Prevx 2.0 days ) |

All I'll add to the great "is MBAM rubbish or not?" debate is: Let those that think it is avoid it like the plague,meanwhile the rest of us will carry on using it on heavily infected systems to great effect.

I have run several tests using Prevx, Avira, A2. Hitman, MBAM etc. Based on my experience, Prevx would not detect as many as Avira or A2 overall - particuarly with an on demand test as Prevx needs live infections to use its behavoural analysis. Also A2 and Avira will detect anything - even if it is not a current threat etc. See my post here re testing: http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showp...0&postcount=37 |

Ok, lets see if I'm getting it right. Give me some help or information here.
From Emsisoft test thread, Andyman35 posted: Quote:
So does this mean that MBAM is useless (to say it someway) if you dont buy it? The realtime protection does not work, if you dont buy it, right? I mean if the scanner is not effective... |
