things to compare antivirus products

[shan]

i thought of comparing a few antivirus products.
ESET, Kaspersky, McAfee sometimes AVG.

and the following catogores would be put on it.
memory useage(on a computer installed with day to day needed software)
Speed of scan
time starting to initialize the scan
time taken to start a program
boot time
self defence.

is there anything more expect detection(i have only virus which are detected by all virus gurds)

It would be nice to see how easy they are to use {to select what to scan} etc

Some are far too complicated

^ I agree - it depends upon tastes of people. AVs come in flavours.
