Well, it’s not bad 12/15… But, remember, it’s a test, the malware set tested was also chose and could not reflect the reality outside. Dr. Web get the 1st position.
Affirmative on what Tech said. And Dr. Web has no free version, though their paid version is priced competitively.
Both Dr. Web and Kaspersky have free stand-alone scan-only versions which install and run without inserting themselves much at all into your system’s environment: http://www.freedrweb.com/cureit/ http://avptool.virusinfo.info/en/
As they’re always updated quite frequently, you download and run as needed.
Though I run avast! Pro full time, I do these every two to three weeks. Just to be sure.
The results only tell us which products are best at “recovery” and im sure some (eset perhaps) will argue that their protection is focused on catching the malware at or during install rather than after it hits the fan.
Well they can argue with that but being realistic that is just a very bad excuse. Nothing catches everything and sometimes you also have to do the dirty work. That also includes ESET with its “uber advacned” heuristics…
