During the 2nd quarter of 2010 AV-Test have tested 19 security products which ran on Windows 7, in the areas protection, repair and usability. The "Protection" covers static and dynamic malware detection, including real-world 0-Day attack testing. In case of "Repair", AV-Test check the system disinfection and rootkit removal in detail. The "Usability" testing includes the system slow-down caused by the tools and the number of false positives. A product has to reach at least 12 points total in order to receive a certification. 13 products have fulfilled our requirements and received an AV-Test certificate.

Despite the fact that the NIS 2010 has accumulated 16 points as Panda Internet Security 2010 product, I placed the Symantec Norton Internet Security 2010 product on second place, because in my opinion, ”Repair” area is more important than ”Usability”, but, to make a right decision, please look at the test reports below:
