    Why even move this to the anti-malware forum?

    Because it's not a "basic" antivirus endurance test. Any further questions should be messaged to a moderator.

    Again WSA tests as amazingly light, but poor in detection. I'm okay making that trade-off, being extra careful when browsing and making sure to test downloads and keeping system images in a safe place. Maybe Webroot is right when they say that these sorts of tests aren't accurately measuring how WSA protects. And that techs are right when they say infections drop dramatically on their networks after installing WSA. But it sure would be nice if the testing caught up and WSA started getting better detection scores.

    Well, at least I can believe F-Secure could get 6/6.
