Default [Virus Bulletin] Antivirus' New Test Results
Never heard about GDATA before. Apparently, their antivirus has the highest detection rate

Virus Bulletin : News - AV-Test release latest results

Quote:
In terms of pure detection rates in on-demand scanning, a beta version of GDATA's AVK 2009 topped the charts for both 'malware' (measured against 1,164,662 samples) and 'ad- and spyware' (94,291 samples), with Avira's Premium Security Suite 2008 a close runner-up in the former category and F-Secure 2009 placing second in the latter. Secure Computing's Webwasher gateway product, based on the Avira engine with some in-house heuristics, came third in both categories.
