I am not professional security consultant but I believe there really is no one best antivirus system out there.
A failure to detect 1 malware on AV-1 but detected on AV-2 doesn't mean AV-2 is superior. AV-1 may be able to detect other malicious codes AV-2 fails to find.
Therefore, I think this poll is misleading and should be named 'Most Popular' and not 'Best'
This is very true. The best for you doesn't mean the best for me. The best detection rate? The best malware coverage? The best function coverage? The best in terms of consuming the least memory resource? "The best" it self is a myth, better further define it...Otherwise it can be just the misleading thread, mislead people to buy the one with highest vote...A failure to detect 1 malware on AV-1 but detected on AV-2 doesn't mean AV-2 is superior. AV-1 may be able to detect other malicious codes AV-2 fails to find.
