The test was done August 15th to 25th of this year.

I'm considering switching from Avast to Active Virus Shield, but I'm not sure yet. After all, AVS IS from AOL... but it seems to be a great program.

is the test completely un-biased?

As far as I know, it's un-biased. I can't find anything to indicate any bias.
<div class='quotetop'></div><div class='quotemain'>Well I know where this came from: AOL, the top 40 are offered in AOL's crappy security service.</div>
Ummm... what? :weird: I found this on Digg. The only thing that has to do with AOL is Active Virus Shield, which is basically Kapersky with AOL branding... so AVS can't be THAT bad.

I switched to AVS because Avast! was using too much RAM. And so far, AVS seems like a good program... plus it only uses about 8000k of RAM.

I just got Kaspersky Internet Security. Has a firewall and AV built in one.

Has been great so far in keeping my PC clean and safe.

Yep, it's supposed to be one of the best.
I wonder if this list is still accurate... err wait, it's not even there anymore.

I have been using Norton for as long as I can remember and it's been working very well for me over the last couple of years. My system have never been exposed to any virus.

AVAST works very for me both on my PC, laptop and smartphone. I can't any other antivirus software. I have heard about Windows Defender and how good it is but I'm very good with AVAST.

Windows Defender is the anti virus software I've always used on my PC. It's the best antivirus I've used for my system. I've never had an attack on my computer since I started using it.
