NOD32 wins it record 30th Virus Bulletin 100% award.
"With its usual admirable performance, NOD32 once again leaves little room for comment and achieves its latest VB 100% award with predictable ease.", commented Virus Bulletin in its February edition granting Eset's antivirus its record 30th Virus Bulletin 100% Award.
A record breaking 28 antivirus products were tested on Windows NT and NOD32 was one of only 4 that achieved a clean sweep detecting all the viruses in all the test sets in both on-demand and on-access tests without any false alarms.
With the exception of Symantec, none of the big "brand names" made the grade with 100% detection in all test sets this time around, missing viruses in either on-demand or on-access scanning and sometimes both.
Below is a list of other antivirus products tested and the amount of viruses each missed in the tests !
Authentium Command - 9
CA eTrust Antivirus - 35
CA Vet Anti-Virus - 12
Frisk F-Prot - 19
F-Secure - 7
Grisoft AVG - 1113
Kaspersky - 2
McAfee VirusScan - 8
Norman Virus Control - 383
Sophos Anti-Virus - 46
UNA UNA Pro - 32558
Talk about a glorious victory for Nod32. I was pretty amazed that even Kaspersky missed some viruses. I guess Norman uses the same engine as Norton. If so, that app must be a total joke. So everyone using another app than nod32, It's time to change!
