Errata: February 2005 Windows NT comparative review
VB regrets that two mistakes crept into the comparative review published in the February 2005 issue.
Virus Bulletin regrets that the Windows NT Workstation comparative review
published in the February 2005 issue of VB (see ,VB, February 2005, p.12) contained two errors.
First, AhnLab V3 VirusBlock was noted as having missed a single file in the
In the Wild (ItW) test set. However, the apparent miss proved to have been
caused by an error in the parsing of the product’s log files. V3 VirusBlock
is thus owed a VB 100% award.
Secondly, F-Secure Anti-Virus 5.43 was noted as having missed several files
in the ItW test set. However, subsequent investigation indicated that the
product’s update process had not completed before the test. After further testing, allowing longer
delays after updating, all ItW files were detected. F-Secure Anti-Virus is
thus entitled to a VB 100%.
Virus Bulletin apologises for the errors and points readers to

results of recent comparative reviews.
