The latest VB100 test on Windows 7 generally saw better product stability than expected, although a lower pass rate than the last test – one third of products failing to achieve VB100 certification this time. In a field with 49 competitors, a significant number failed – 17 to be precise – including names such as Agnitum, Vexira, Emisoft and Vipre. ESET once again triumphed and continue the stretch of VB100 awards – still no other AV vendor comes close to this number of awards in the VirusBtn.com team of independent AV tests.
