New test - pcwelt ?

I don't want to hear the excuses, only that they will fix this

And maybe give 'someone' a kick up the backside who surely is not doing their job, I've sent in enough samples myself, but won't do their job for them

The samples are there to be added, I'm very sure they have them, so why are they not adding them?

The technology is there, the origin tracing is very good, so I really dread to think what the score would have been without it.

This needs explaining, and fixing asap

 

What versions did they test?

i.e. Is f-Prot 6.0.8?
or are these SW freezed sometimes ago?

Mike

 

presumably the versions/updates are not older than from around the 10-15th November 2007 (guessing based on the german text).

 

According to that F-PROT should be 6.0.8.0 (released on 29/10)

 

[FONT=&quot]I am an Eset customer but you won't find me discrediting this test. In fact, the results help to reconfirm what I've felt about Nod32 for some time now

On a more positive note, I think its great to see some of the other lesser known AV vendors getting good results

Cheers.

Just another "great" test. Kudos to F-Prot.

 

As always, glad to see my baby at the very top

webwasher? what is it?

 

Its avira plus paranoid heuristics, not for home use so I guess gdata is top

Outstanding & congrats

 

Yeah Chris, i know WW that's why my 'smilies' above

On the other hand, i agree with others about... MS!

 

IMO, the only surprises are DrWeb and McAfee. Also, I expected Fortinet to perform better, because it flags everything
KAV, BD, Symantec and Antivir at the top, Avast, AVG and ESET at the middle of the pack, paranoid scanners (Ikarus, Sophos, Webwasher) performing OK, Trend, Microsoft, F-Prot, ClamAV and VBA32 improving, Panda and Norman so-so and eTrust LOL

 

good job webwasher antivirus
any one have link to download and try webwasher antivirus ?

 

It's a *Corporate Gateway* security app. AFAIK, they do not cater to individual home users. Website HERE. Shop HERE. Only $600/25users/year. Or (if you have a very large family), just $1110/50users/year. Rush right out & subscribe.

 

Right.
Anyway, they're using the Avira engine together with some very paranoid heuristics (that may lead to many FPs). You can try Avira instead.

 

Perhaps they are doing something at dr.web, almost 7000 signatures added today when usually the number is around 200-250

 

I bet they are doing "something." I wonder what?

Best,
Jerry

 

probably added 6800 variants of eicar test file

 

Thanks for that. I got a good laugh, and that is always good.
Jerry

 

strange enough because Avira added about 6500 defs today also. They usually add a lot, but not more then 1500. It is definetely a special day today.
