Instead of sniping at any positive press about Onecare, perhaps you could explain McAfee’s results in AV-Test.org’s latest. http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,2135092,00.asp

I’d expect you all to have a better detection rate.

I wondered how some journalists came to the conclusion that OneCare shows an improvement based on the test results of May, as this was the first time that OneCare was tested in the retrospective test and that the same version was tested like in February. Journalists are invited to drop me an email thru the contact form on the website in case results are not clear or just want to get sure that what they write is correct .
Thanks for your blog entry!

Yub. Agreed. Also the term “independent anti-virus researcher” is wrong. Andreas Clementi is an Antivirus Tester, but not Anti-virus Researcher. There’s a big difference between both of them.

Good write-up Feech.
