Proactive Security Challenge test done by matousec.com

Two updates have been in Proactive Security Challenge in June, during which we retested eight products, namely:

Avira Premium Security Suite 9.0.0.367
Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 9.0.0.459
Lavasoft Personal Firewall 3.0.2293.8822
Malware Defender 2.2.2
Online Armor Personal Firewall 3.5.0.14 Free
Outpost Security Suite Pro 2009 6.5.4.2525.381.0687
Panda Internet Security 2010 15.00.00
Rising Internet Security 2009 21.41.21

Excellent results have been achieved by Kaspersky Internet Security, Online Armor Personal Firewall and Outpost Security Suite Pro. Close to excellent results was Malware Defender.

I'm quite surprise that KIS made it this time - nice shot!

Great test results, after reading about how poor Outpost did in the other test, at least BOTH editions passed this one.

Malware Defender 2.2.2
Close to excellent results was Malware Defender.

Be careful. There is a rouge by this name so be sure what you are downloading if you decide to try it.

Here is the real website. http://www.torchsoft.com/en/md_information.html

Here is a guide to remove the rouge. Remove Malware Defender 2009 http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/remove-malware-defender-2009
