    Maybe they performed a 'crack suicide squad attack' after the first infection, like these guys in Monty Python's Life of Brian.

    that's like not rescinding marketing when a product's shown not to enhance your libido and mow your lawn. this is very obviously a marketing tool and nothing more.

    my interpretation:
    "OMG LOOK HOW GREAT OUR PRODUCT IS. WE'RE PUTTING OURSELVES OUT IN FRONT OF A MOVING TRAIN HERE AND NARY AN INFECTION! IT'S AMAZING! BUY OUR PRODUCT NOW! ALL THESE OTHER PRODUCTS SUCK IN COMPARISON! LOOK AT THOSE COUNTERS!" etc etc etc

    I was wondering why the Prevx results have remained static for a while...

    That ain't fair... but then again. They are testing their own product... what can we expect.

    Companies running a test will always try to make their product be #1 so of course Bluepoint won this comparison. I think the best solution is to use whatever product is rated #2, which in this case appears to be Comodo which allowed only 2 unique infections.
