A table of AV-TEST's results

Really Independent?
[edit]Given the fact that the "test results" of AV-TEST can easily be debkuned as biased in favor of Anti Virus software, one must pose the question if they are really independant and not rather a marketing activity of the AV industry in general. For example the regulary award a lot of AV products a protection of 99-100% against "0 day" attacks (e.g. viruses in email attachments) while everyone can test by himself that in reality the protection about 0day email viruses is around 0% for all AV software. Just grab some virus attachments from your daily spam and feed it to different AV software. Most of them will not recognize it during the first 24 hours after you received it. After some days, maybe 30% of the software will detect it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.72.66.207 (talk) 11:44, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
