Heuristics-only detection
(includes only antivirus software that allowed heuristics NOT to be used during the scan)

What are heuristics: They analyze the code of each file with generic methods and detect new viruses that have not yet been included in the virus database of the antivirus software.

Why are heuristics important: Because they help the antivirus software to discover a new unknown virus and thus protect the pc from being infected, even though the specific virus has not yet been included in the virus database of the antivirus software.

Rank Antivirus - Detected using only heuristics (this is the total of samples that would not be detected by each antivirus if heuristics were not used and not the total of samples that are detected by each antivirus using heuristics!)

Just curious, why are you using so many old versions of AV? F-Prot is V.6, AVG is 7.5, BitDefender is 10.2, etc.

If AVG is tested, should test AVG Anti-Malware instead of AVG Prof. That's what AV-Comparatives will be doing for this Feb Report. Must be accurate!!!

Do take note, the chart does not factor in stuff like scanning speed, memory usage, UI design, price etc..
Intel Xeon E3110 → MSI P35 Neo2-Fr → XV 9600GT → Corsair XMS2 1GBx2 → WD 160GB Seagate 320GB → LG GH20N 20X SATA → CoolerMaster M520 → 19' AL1914 LCD

bro ..

NOD32 is a good AV programs.If you wana learn on how to benefit from its advanced features which are not being ticked by default,go to their support forum @ http://www.wilderssecurity.com/forumdisplay.php?f=16.

Another good website to check for AV reviews is Virus Bulletin @ www.virusbtn.com. You will need to register in order to see the reviews
