G Data still with the best result, 99.9

It is not totally a surprise when you consider it has two scanners, avast (99.3%) and BitDefender (99.3%), so the combined detection only raises that from a joint 99.3% detection to a combined detection rate of 99.9% only a 0.6% increase.

The Scanning Speed Test, puts many AV claims to the sword, with avast taking top place and MSE 2nd last.

Avast! beat Symantec, yay!

Dynamic results were a little disappointing, but it still isn’t finished.

Wow, impressive. avast! did better than it normally does. ;D And it has the fastest scanner of all the AV’s!
Nice work avast team, congratulations.

Bad result in the Dymanic test… :frowning:

They’re not finished. Don’t jump to conclusions.

Impressive Result from avast!.

Keeps Improving!

Good Work Avast Software. :slight_smile:

The main problem why MSE is so darn slow is that they are scanning archives on-access. Otherwise it would be fairly quick.

Thank GOD for that I’m so glad Avast Free version has beating the world greatest crappy sh#t Symantec, Avast will always be my very true and trustful KING!
