Avira reaches 100% – Virus Bulletin Award
Thu, 05 July 2007
Tettnang, 05. July 2007 – Avira has made it again: Thanks to its excellent virus detection the antivirus software ‘Made in Germany’ received the „VB 100%“-Award in April and once more in June.
 After successful testing under AntiVir Suse for Linux Enterprise Server 10 in April, AntiVir on Windows XP SP2 had to bear up to reams of viruses from the Wildlist, macro viruses, polymorphic viruses, worms as well as DOS viruses to receive the award. Avira managed to handle those threats with a constantly high detection performance – and there were no false positives, which means that AntiVir detected only the infected files in the test and did not even declare one clean one as virus. In addition to this there was special mention the high detection rate of the virus scanner and the user friendliness.
“The slogan of AntiVir promises ‘More Than Security‘, and I felt safe in view of the outstanding detection rate by all means“, says John Hawes of the Virus Bulletin, a renowned institution for virus protection and IT security worldwide. Avira can be proud to keep the sought-after seal of quality for the month June.
