And 94-96% would be a real turn over for this guy.

I wish the best for Twister.
I am quite sure that the detection rate would be above 95%.
What I am afraid of is the fault posstive.
Thought it seems that Twister acts good in some test, but in the daily use, there is a problem as FP.

I really wanna know damn it...... i want av-comparitives to test it so i can just find out, since they used Huge amounts of samples, i have been constantly submitting rogue software to twister for the last 2 days so hopefully that will help :D

Yes, it would be very interesting indeed to see how Twister's performance will be. Maybe it's gonna be the AV of the year 2009, who knows :P (would make a party then :P, all Twistees invited)

Good job! That's actually one of Twister's major disadvantages. Not many people know it and so they don't submit samples.

For the history i post here too the results from the Wilder's thread.

Twister:

Avira:

Dr Web Cure it.

Well, at least it beat Dr. Web by far and missed about 110 samples compared to Avira. And my impression was the Twister scanned them faster than both. Also, consider that FDDS is one of Twister's strong features and wasn't activated in this test because it was on demand. So overall, i d say it was respectable performance.

Thats why i'm makeing sure i raise its rogue detection.

811 rogue samples sent in 4 days, AV-360 / MalwareDefence / Load.exe's / Anti-virus 2009/2008/2010/ and many more.

I plan too, Its not overly difficult, i think filseclab's job at adding them to the databace is alot harder then my skill at finding new rogues.

Aslong as they keep doing there job ile keep doing mine :D

XttX://yourchristmaslights.com/ - I <3 you, But not really, Don't download its active malware, but you would be supprised how many people fall for stuff like that xD

Yes, if they are 20 people, they must work like mad to add all malware that arrives to them... Thanks for the link! I loved it! "Love.exe". Ahahah! "Please download your love.exe and execute and Merry Xmas!". :lol:

Seems the Spring Festival is over and they add signatures again. They 've started adding the signatures that Zimzi sent them from the Wilder's test. So from 1393 malware flagged originally, now it's 1522.
