To quote Virus Bulletin, when referring to NOD32's past performance of having never missed a Virus in the Wild test - "Their record claim remains unbroken" and "speed which it combines with a recent record of no false positives". NOD32 remains the Best of the New Generation and will most likely be the last Antivirus product you buy. You have already tried the rest - it is time to buy the best.

" With no misses and an excellent overall scanning speed, there is little in the way of comment to make which is not blatantly obvious to even the most myopic observer ", commented Matthew Ham of the Virus Bulletin (February 2001).

PRESS RELEASE - July 2001 Virus Bulletin tests (July 16, 2001)

NOD32 excels in July 2001 Virus Bulletin tests, detecting 100% of all the samples in all test sets and achieving impressive Hard Disk Scan Rates of the executable files, outperforming all other products by overwhelming margins (2-53 times!).

July 2001 issue of the Virus Bulletin (international publication on computer virus prevention, recognition and removal) features June 2001 results of the regular Comparative Review of the leading anti-virus products. Four products achieved remarkable virus detection rate. Among the four products with highest (100%) detection efficiency, NOD32 turned out to be 18-36 times faster! NOD32 not only continues to provide 100% scanning efficiency but combines it with the highest possible scanning rate of the executable files. It took NOD32 52 seconds to scan all the test executable files (and not miss a single virus) while other products needed up to 46 minutes to do the job.

"The full detection of all samples in the test set is almost expected now, but the speed of scanning was even more remarkable." (Matthew Ham, Virus Bulletin, July 2001)
