The Antivirus Software Challange-live

[idaho]

What is the 70 Threat Challenge?

The 70 Threat Challenge is a real-time/live broadcast of four operating systems, protected with four different antivirus products. Each system in the challenge is exposed to live & active malware websites from around the world to determine active prevention capabilities of each product tested. This challenge is designed to provide a close to real world scenario for these products. Most of the malware in this test is quite dangerous and should not be allowed to infect the operating system. In this lab scenario, there are no ramifications during a malware infection however, on your computer this could be disastrous. This challenge provides a unique window into the world of antivirus effectiveness and the inner workings of malware.

Phew, I would love to participate in something like this, with no AV, and see if I get infected.
