This test was conducted using active viruses, which is not how most viruses are sent. Viruses are usually sent in a dormant form and all antivirus software programmes excluding eScan cannot detect these viruses.
This is what makes eScan better than any other brand of antivirus software, as it detects and deltes dormant and active viruses in real time and only writes clean data to the hard drive.

Ranked 2nd out of 40 antivirus programmes in a independant Test.
99.9% of anti virus software writes dormant viruses to a temporary folder in Windows and then they activate & perform illegal operations. eScan scans in real time & delete dormant viruses before they hit the Windows folder.
eScan uses unique technology that is patented that provides the ability to scan in real time for dormant and active viruses and delete them there and then and only write clean internet data to the hard drive. No other antivirus software has this technology.
Why eScan is better than the others!
With MicroWorld WinSock Layer (MWL)
MWL sits on WinSock. All content passing through WinSock has to mandatorily pass through MWL, where it is checked for any security violating data. If such data occurs, it is removed and the clean data is passed on to the application. |

(Results)
AV: G Data Infections found: 36,423 Comments: Highest success of any AV solution tested, identifying 99.95 percent of all the malware in my data file; downside is that everything is in German and the GUI is a little bit quirky.
AV: eScan Infections found: 36,146 Comments: Surprisingly, this unknown (at least to me) AV vendor found the second highest number of malware. The scanning times were average but it outperformed many other better known brands with 99.19 percent detection. Ranks in second place.
AV: Bit Defender Infections found: 36,105 Comments: After a rocky start the software showed its true ability by finding 36,105 pieces of malware. That's a total of 99.08 percent and ranks the software in third place. |
