    I just hope that Sophos AV 7.0, which will be released some time in June or July would do better. It is beyond my expectation that Sophos performed like this in the test. :( They should do more to improve the detection rate in addition to maintaining the stability of the software.

    Bad for Sophos. Anyway, will you be testing Panda also in one of these single tests? :)

    I guess by then they'll be using a Kaspersky engine as well. ;)

    I wonder if Panda will pass. if i recall correctly, the last time Panda participated, it scored 85% without the DOS viruses/malware category and 91% including the DOS viruses/malware category. Now that this category is not used to judge certification, I wonder if it wil indeed pass. I am also somewhat doubtful of trendMicro as it only got 87% when it had about 50 extra days over the regularly tested products.
