Need a link
This is a discussion about Need a link in the Windows Software category; Someone posted in here not to long ago a link for a site that tests anti-virus software. The site tested I think the top 25 programs. Can you repost the link? Thank you.

I'm pretty sure this is the link you're looking for, it's been updated, now there's a total of 37 AVP's tested.

Thanks for the link Relic it looks like a good site but the one I am looking for had more info on the types of viruses and trojans and gave more detail on each programs results.
It also had a section of programs that were exclusive to their members only.
I believe it was either American Zombie or Dos Freak that posted the link. I'll send a pm to them and see if they remember.
Thanks again though

Well, if you find the link, drop it in here for the rest of us too.

Thanks for the posting dosfreak, I have seen that site before and it is a really good one but it isn't the one I am looking for.
Thanks again for posting the link

Relic, here is a new link. Still not the one I am looking for but it looks to be a good site. http://www.checkvir.com/ I have searched the forums looking for that link but still no luck finding it yet.

BTW, to test your curent AVP, dwnld these files, if it doesn't bust them on the dwnld, it should when you attempt to open/unzip them. The file date is 2003, but it's updated constantly, so trust me, it's 2005.
