AV-Comparatives November Proactive tests

www.av-comparatives.org
Click on Main Comparatives link, you'll see the November tests there
Summary, top 5 for detection below...however Avira missed the Advanced + rating due to higher false positives. Good to see Microsofts SE continue to prove itself solid. G Data also continues to have a strong showing this year. Norton/Symantec had been solid lately, however they fell on this round.
Avira
G Data
Kaspersky
Eset
FSecure/Microsoft

Yeah the pro-active tests show the strengths of heuristics, and AVs that lean heavily on cloud based don't shine as well. Norton has shifted more heavily on cloud..as well as its "pulse" updates..those tiny updates every 5 minutes.

Since MSE did fairly well...and it uses a bit of cloud..it's interesting to see it fair well.
