    The Online Armor result is under investigation by OA developers. OA has passed these sort of tests 100% time and time again, including a 100% level on Matousec's tests, so this poor result looks very dubious and questionable to say the least.

    I'm really curious on how this test was performed regarding the Online Armor score.

    But unfortuntely, the test results page seems down;
    "У вас нет доступа к этой странице/You do not have access to this page."

    eh.. is this a joke? all russian made apps score better than others in this russian made website? Seriously
    nothings against russian apps, they are great (like kaspesky) but those independent test are far from realistic.

    The fun thing(Or maybe not.) is that when i just clicked on the link for the russian site, Panda Cloud AV Url filter blocked the site. :)

    Not in their performance test though, where Kaspersky is mediocre and Dr.Web and Outpost do pretty bad.

    I can't view these results at all, just get the "You do not have access to this page." message.

    On their forum, it's mentioned that (using Google Translate) 'clerical errors have been made' regarding the OA score.

    Sergey Ilyin, one of the testers wrote;

    "Friends, I have to admit not a good thing.

    First time in our history we have to recall an article that has already been published.

    The fact that there were serious doubts about the validity of the results for some products (eg, Online Armor).
    During the test, clerical errors were made, and that distorted the results.

    Anything can happen in life. We acknowledge our mistakes and make the incident the most serious conclusions.
    I beg to treat with understanding what has happened.

    Republication of the test results is scheduled for next Wednesday (November 10)."


    So, for now that still leaves Spyware Terminator as perhaps the most underestimated HIPS in the world. ;)
    (But I guess, Scoobs72 has guessed right).

    Yes, and it is also good news for that Russian test outfit. Their credibility went up 100% in my view because of their willingness to admit an error and not play cover up.

    Hopefully they will also setup ZA correctly before re-doing the test :)

    My bad.
    Sergey Ilyin is a moderator at the antimalware.ru forum.
    Because of his post in the forum, I erroniously assumed he was one of the testers. (Assumption is the mother of all f-ups, I should have been more careful).

    Google cache indeed clearly shows Vyacheslav Kopeytsev, Vasily Berdnikov and Ilya Shabanov as the authors of this test.

    The test was made (technically) by Kopeytsev, the test module have been made by Berdnikov and Ilya is the owner of Anti-Malware and the author of the test's idea itself.

    OK. Just to get this straight (without assumptions ;)).
    Both Sergey Ilyin and Ilya Shabanov are the owners of Antimalware.ru?
