A-SQUARED outperforms CIS & AVIRA?

On my friends PC, he suspected that there are Malwares hiding that’s why I uninstalled his AVIRA Free and Installed CIS with Custom for Firewall and Paranoid for DEF+ surprisingly, after running a Full Scan CIS (AV) did not detect those Trojan that A-SQUARED detected… so this means that A-SQUARED performs best over Avira and CIS? Or A-SQUARED delivers a FALSE-POSITIVE result? because both MBAM and SAS did not found of those Trojan that detected by A-Squared.

asquared is a very decent product with two engines. a2 and twister.

CIS AV is rather new and will get there but give it some time

#3

A2 does have it’s share of false positives though. I’d submit the file to VirusTotal before making any rash decisions.

I don’t see anything bad in that, just some cookies, some left overs in system restore from old malware and one temp file from some malware that was left behind, so technically it did not find anything dangerous. If you clear out system restore and clean firefox’s history and temp files everything from that list will be gone, and if you use ccleaner that left over temp file might be gone also or or it might be a FP, more research is required.

those Trojan-dowmloader on system restore seems a HIGH RISK base on A-SQAURED report… how would you explain it?

that is a old system restore file, like I said it is not active, if you purge system restore it is gone, it was there at one point in time and windows backed it up to system restore, but some AV got rid of it.

A-squared is using their own engine + Ikarus AV
