The top dog in the tests was G Data Security's AntiVirusKit
17 anti-virus programs tested against hundreds of thousands of worms, viruses, Trojan horses and other malware.
The
AV Comparatives Web site, which is maintained by Andreas Cleminti from Innsbruck, Austria, posts quarterly results of tests that pit the top anti-virus products against a dynamic list of nearly half a million individual pieces of malware.
Top dog, according to Cleminti's tests, was
G Data Security's AntiVirusKit (AVK), which nailed 99.5% of the malicious code.
Followed By :
AEC's TrustPort AV WS, at 99.4%,
Avira's AntiVir PE Premium, at 98.9%,
MicroWorld's eScan Anti-Virus, at 97.9%,
F-Secure's Anti-Virus, at 97.9%, and
Kaspersky Labs' AV, which stopped 97.9% of the malware.
Norton/Mcafee nowhere among the top !!
Kaspersky rep takes a beating !?
Microsoft's OneCare takes last place !!
