AV-Test.org: July / August 2013 - Windows 7

I'm using F-Secure right now, and this is the lightest AV I've ever used. AV-Test loses all credibility the moment it says Trend Micro has less of a system impact than Norton, Eset, or F-Secure. Absolutely comical.

 

Lack of customization?
Please, explain.....

 

It may depend on the exact factors they used to assess the system impact. May be you are a users that has a different use pattern of the PC as compared to the profile AV-Test.org has selected. For example, an office user will manly work with e-mail/documents/excel sheets/printing/etc while a home user could be more oriented to internet, video, sound, gaming.

I guess that finding the right balance while choosing factors to be taken into account is rather difficult.

 

Can't disable module without getting big ass warning nagging you about it every time. Inside the program and in task bar icon. Few things require registry editing (when simple tick box should have been enough). Not sure if things have changed, It's been close to 6 months since the last time I used Webroot.
