AntiVir, F-Secure, and Kasperksy fail latest Virus Bulletin test

Virus Bulletin (VB ) conducted its latest test in September, posting the results this month. The security research company evaluated 24 anti-malware products for Windows Server 2008. The basic requirements for a product passing the test is detecting, both on demand and on access, in its default settings, all malware known to be "In the Wild" at the time of the review, and not detecting any false positives when scanning a set of clean files...

OneCare places 16th in antivirus test, 13th in spyware.

Virus Bulletin this month released the results of a major comparative of the latest security products, covering a range of metrics. These include detection rates over various types of malware, false positive rates, scanning speed, proactive detection, and response times to outbreaks.

Taking a look at the first one, detection rates, it's clear that a beta version of GDATA's AVK 2009 (which uses the Avast and BitDefender scan engines) took first place for both malware (measured against 1,164,662 samples) as well as ad- and spyware (94,291 samples). Avira's Premium Security Suite 2008 was second for malware, F-Secure 2009 was second in ad- and spyware, and Secure Computing's Webwasher gateway product came third in both categories.

he most interesting data to emerge from this measurement (4 week span) was that the 2009 version of Norton topped the table with an impressive 6,202 incremental micro-updates, issued several times per hour, while Kaspersky came a distant second with a mere 696. Half of the 34 products tested had fewer than 100, including those from McAfee (21) and Trend Micro (30)

Windows Live OneCare place last in anti-virus evaluation

Anti-virus researcher Andreas Cleminti, owner of Innsbruck, Austria-based AV Comparatives Web site posts quarterly results of tests that compare the top anti-virus products against a dynamic list of nearly half a million individual pieces of malware. In his February 2007 on-demand comparative, Cleminti tested 17 anti-virus programs and found Microsoft's Windows Live OneCare claimed last place after detecting 82.4% of the threats. G Data Security's AntiVirusKit (AVK), scored the best score: 99.5%. Following close behind were: AEC's TrustPort AV WS (99.4%), Avira's AntiVir PE Premium (98.9%), MicroWorld's eScan Anti-Virus (97.9%), F-Secure's Anti-Virus (97.9%) and Kaspersky Labs' AV (97.9%).

Cleminti also tested the 17 products against polymorphic viruses, those which produce sometimes vast numbers of variants as they try to sneak by scanners. " The results of the polymorphic test are of importance because they how flexible an anti-virus scan engine is and how good the detection quality of complex viruses is ," said Cleminti in his write-up. Only Symantec's Norton AntiVirus and ESET's NOD32 Anti-Virus caught every variant of the 12 polymorphic families, he said. In that test, OneCare placed 15th, detecting every version of only two families, and missing seven of the polymorphic families completely.

" We are looking closely at the methodology and results of the test to ensure that Windows Live OneCare performs better in future tests ," a Microsoft spokesperson said.
