I find these sites not entirely helpful, as some antiviruses might perform
well under lab conditions, but in the wild are terminally awful, examples
are of course norton internet security, where the bloated software is
crippled and doesnt force scan the system by default.

The best way of testing would involve giving a hundred teenage kids internet
access, and leaving them to it for seven days.
