Latest AV software testing results

Here is the latest round up of AV protection software. No surprises again; Kaspersky and Bitdefender came out on top, as usual, though they missed a perfect score by one half-point. Trend Micro did equally well. Avira and Qihoo took 17 of 18 possible points. All earned kudos from the AV-Test staff.

This round of testing measured three variables.

One: malware protection.

Two: how the AV software effects system performance.

Three: false positives.
