This is why I trust VBA32, heavily... I ran across a particularly nasty adware a few minutes ago, i'd go so far as to catagorize it was a trojan...
Similar, but works on the fly, and is tiny and simple. =) I've layed a good 1000 trojans/worms through Sandboxie, and none have escaped its...
Just browse using Sandboxie, doesn't matter what AV you have, ain't nothing going to get through your browser. ;-) http://www.sandboxie.com/...
Do you need a light av or don't care? If you don't care, get Gdata AVK, can't beat the double engines. Whatever one AV misses, the other likely...
Ok but whos criteria do you base this off? A few hobby test sites? VB? Or word of mouth from security professionals? Or trial and error and...
No test would convince me to replace Dr.Web on the majority of machines here. They require light and transparent AV's that have zero system drag,...
EXCELLENT point.
Far more should be considered than this test when choosing an AV. Things such as heuristics, interface, how light/heavy the product is, and ease...
What purpose would this serve? I don't publish test results on a web page, and I don't offer anything more than some basic opinions based on my...
You sir are mistaken, i'm not a "homemade" tester. I do this for a living. I have the faculty to evaluate samples myself, under rare...
No, it isn't fair, and it *IS* in your hands... You are slanting and biasing your test in favor of certain specific AVs. As a supposed "AV...
and 300,000 of those are Dos viruses. Your point?
Either i'm misunderstanding something, or your tests seem biased. Are you saying you provide samples to a "Chosen Few" companies, and the rest...
This brings up another point - doesn't VBA32 score high for you in your samples Firefighter? Similar to what it scores for me?
I agree. This is why I purged all DOS samples from my inventory - why would I care how a AV performs on DOS? Who the hell runs dos anymore...
That is strange, I ran VBA32 over 61,000 samples this month and VBA32 scores 94.6%, while Kaspersky scores 96.1% on the same subset.. But my...
Given that a full 75% of hacker attacks originate from China. Also add in that China is the haven for piracy, illegal copying schemes, and...
Wonder if the company miraculously changed to a company full of people that actually give a crap? Or I wonder if it detects more than 30-35% ZOO...
There are a few strange things comparing them. They both use the IDENTICAL naming conventions, and both seem to have excellent signature...
I did try this, this option doesn't come up on Custom Install. I figured out why, I was using a very old core version to install, redownloaded,...
There are NO options for the personal version on what to install that I can find. I might have to reload Dr.Web till this is resolved, because...
Accoridng to VBA folks, this is because google doesn't like AV monitors on POP3. Workarounds are to not install the POP3 component - however I...
Not even close, but thanks for the suggestion. ;D I get NOD32 for free, and still don't use it. I'm picky. At any rate, I suspect VBA folks...
This is a huge blow for me.. I just installed the AMAZING GoogleSidebar, and it complains about VBA32 and won't run with it installed. I...
You just described much of the AV industry my friend (at least in my experiance). Anyone relying on an AV as a mainline of defense is relying on...
