    Hi:

    Been a long while but am back. I just wanted to say I have started to test security products and others and man they are getting worse.

    I tested 14 free and 1 paid security programs for protecting completly (blocking and / or removing all malwares completly) and only one passed with flying colours and the rest failed.

    heck to my surprise even comodo with its mighty VM, sandbox and others like voodoo shield and secureaplus FAILED.

    The only winner to my surprise was Kaspersky free AV. SO decided to use it for my pc.

    the products I tested were

    SCORING



    RECOMMENDED : 100% in offering full protection (blocking & removal)

    PASSED : 100% in protection only (blocking)

    FAILED: less then 100% in protection and / or removal



    Kaspersky: RECOMMENDED
    Tencent pc manager: FAILED
    AVG antivirus: FAILED
    Forticlient: FAILED
    Zemana anti-malware (paid): FAILED
    Immunet: FAILED
    Panda antivirus: FAILED
    AVAST antivirus: FAILED
    MS security essential (win10): FAILED
    Comodo: FAILED
    360 Total security: FAILED
    Appcheck: FAILED
    Bitdefender antivirus: FAILED
    Zonealarm FW+ AV: FAILED
    SecureAplus: FAILED
