    The cleaning portion of the test is odd.

    An av is given a zero if it removes an infected file and given a 10 if it disinfects it. This is based on a scale of zero to 10 with 10 being the highest.

    Some were given a final score of zero for deleting 10 infected files.

    What? o_O

    It doesn't mention which files and if these were incorrectly deleted.

    Very intriguing controversial results, well done trend.

    Very glad to see a cleaning test as well :D

    Afaik it doesn't many that any file were incorrectly deleted, only that they were not able to clean the file, as deleting a file is not the same a cleaning a file. And this being a test that tests the cleaning capabilities of the products, and most/every AV do usually try to clean the file before deleting it.
    And deletion in this case is probably putting the file directly in the quarantine.

    Just what I think :)

    After a quick glance on this test I ended up more confused than their own chinese characters on the bottom part o_O

    My view, many product were ignored for this "review" and their best awards went mainly to companies with big $$$ ;)

    This is the so-called typical bs test.

    I'm no fan of any special av product. But this looks full of ****. :p
