Congratulations to ALWIL team for achieving yet another ADVANCED mark on AV-Comparatives test! It’s certanly showing a steady increase in detection rate. 
Check out the latest August 2006 test (released around hour ago).

Nice to see that Avast is holding on as a good antivirus.
The results are nothing to whooray, but not bad either, no way
I’m mostly happy because they are keeping the ADVANCED. They used to be STANDARD in the past.
Congrats to Alwil ;D 8)
So…we can expect ADVANCED+ soon : 8)
Congratulations and keep the hard work pushing foward.
Kaspersky is not a surprise… But I always get surprised with Avira and Symantec :-\
Yes, congratulations!
Keep up the good work!
Good work, ALWIL Team! 
Hope you can work even more to receive the ADVANCED+… 
I am especially glad to see Avast improve in the area of trojan detection. That has been a weak spot in my view. The improvement from 80.35% to 88.35% is significant.
Now if the “other malware” and “other OS viruses/malware” categories can make similar improvements Avast will make Advanced + I feel sure.

Yes significant improvement on Trojan detection and an improvement in the bottom line figures also to Total 92.01% and Total including DOS viruses/malware 94.58% - Up from 89.24% and 93.58% respectively.
It is nice to see these improvements, onwards and upwards.
lets hope it gets the ++++ next time Avg scored badly so Avast is still to me the best free for light av’s i didnt like Antivir and kaspersky ground me to a halt…yuk … avast is the lightest yet good work…
what looks VERY interesting are G-DATA AVK results … if i’m not mistaken this should be with Avast! engine already right ?
look at that score 99.68% which mean TOP1 and beats Kaspersky with “only” 99.06% as TOP4
also Avira scores 99.51% and results into TOP2 that’s suprise …
F-Secure as TOP3 proves they still good now beating by 0.01% KAV …
very suprising tests really … anyway congrats to Alwil for improvements done, but keep harder and faster
YAY !! Avast! is becoming a MORE well known and formidable anti-virus !! Yay !! Congrats !! Keep up the good work !!
Not yet - avast! engine will be included in the next version (AVK 2007), this test was still done with Bitdefender engine. As a remark says (in av-comparatives report), the new version will be tested next year.
ok lets hope for 99.99% result
