That is not what RejZoR is talking about.
It is AV-Comparatives wish that you only link to the main site.
I think I recall Avira stating that adding a HIPS would decrease the on-demand detection rate which is something they don't want.
I send any fp's (Even those not heuristic based) to Stefan and he takes a look at them.
Have you emailed them to heuristik2@avira.com? I find Stefan to be much more responsive.
I think I recall something stating that they would work independently even though PC tools was bought by Symantec.
Ugh, how disgraceful.
Way too many 99%'s and the sample size is too small for me to take this seriously.
The test uses an outdated version so I doubt that.
The false positive test was done in advance (look at the August report) and Avira got many false positives, so it won't get Advanced+. If the same...
Doing this is not permitted. You can only provide a link to the main page of av-comparatives.org.

Couldn't Avira have separated the update into two or even three smaller portions over a week? Would that not have placed less strain on servers?
The testers are nothing but a bunch of arrogant amateurs.
I just updated with no problems.
Its detection rates suck. I've seen people that go on wilders complain about it and it is also quite unprofessional.
Panda is a crappy company. Not surprised at all at it making such a bogus claim.
By taking a look at the stats, I'm guessing that they use a thousand+ replicants of the same family of malware.
IBK has never penalized products for having many fp's in the February/August tests. In the report, it states that there will be penalizations next...
I find the results for Set B to be interesting. It looks like malware authors are making more malware then ever with less detections from av's.
I can see a mod intervening if people don't calm down.
They don't share ths same engine. F-Secure uses the old Kaspersky engine.
Your dad needs to know that Comodo Antivirus is awful.
If you clear your cache, there should be no detections... maybe.
Separate names with a comma.
