Microsoft One Care has once again finished low in a comparative study of virus scanners. This time the report was done by independent security researcher Andreas Clementi. He submitted the results to his av-comparatives.org website. Some of the scanners evaluated were Avast! Professional, BitDefender Professional, FortiClient, F-Secure, Kaspersky, NOD32, and Norton. One care wasn’t even comparable stopping only 82.4 percent of the 497,608 different pieces of malware thrown at it. One Care was the only scanner to register under 90% with most scanners stopping over over 95%. To see the online comparison click here.
