    The reason why so few products were tested is that the platform was Windows 2003 Server x64 Edition.

    Yup. I did know this before writing this: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=109351

    Even if the test there was not performed on a 64Bit System it's a nice "contrast". :rolleyes:

    Problems with scanning infected floppy disks (not even one infected disk was detected) was the reason. This shows again the fact: You cannot only relay on bundled Engine SDK's (in this case Bitdefender and Kaspersky) because the
    lowlevel access is not included there (you have to provide this by yourself)

    :rolleyes:
