Re: kaspersky did not detect autorun virus but nod32 did!!

said by wajdi gary :

hi i was using the original kaspersky to delete autorun virus that closing my yahoo messenger and slowing my pc, but kaspersky did not detected and its too slow on scanning, but i installed nod32 and scanned with it gosh it detected all! after restarting my pc became faster! by the way i updated the both antivirus's before scanning, thanks to nod32. WOW
Don't get too excited about it Gary.

More often than not, NOD32 is first with detection of new malware (the anti-ESET gang will scream in protest, but the proof is in independent historical statistics) but there are no certainties. NOD32 misses a few new ones, but as a general rule of thumb, everything else misses more. Sometimes Kaspersky is first. Sometimes Norton is first. Sometimes Trend is first. Nobody is first every time.

I've used NOD32 for years but I'm a long way from being a fanboi. I gave ESET a rough ride for months over v3 and ESS, but my problems were with program bugs and slow fixes, not detection. I've never seen NOD32 fail to detect anything important enough to bitch about.

Really??? Go to Wilders, the official NOD support forum. There are hundreds of threads there where it doesn't detect something and of course, you're asked to submit it password protected and zipped to support. Which usually has the response that it already has been without so much as a response.

I used NOD for over 6 years. Support sucks, the official forum sucks, and the program sucks after going to Ver 3.

And how many of those hundreds of threads refer to "something" detected as malicious by another AV that turns out to have been a harmless false alarm? (No need to go to Wilders, you can find examples right here.)

Wilders ESET Forum is where NOD32 fanbois do battle with the fanbois of other AVS and anti-NOD32 lamers. 5% useful information and 95% useless crapola IMO.

If everything about NOD32 sucks, why did you keep using it for over 6 years? Masochistic?

I went back to using v2.7 and kicked ESET around the forums for months because bugs and instability made the early v3 almost unusable. Now it's stable and vastly improved.

Constructive comments prod vendors into improving their products.

"Everything abut it sucks" comments do nothing except waste bandwidth.
