Hi vandersen
 
Welcome to the Community Forums...:D
 
Many thanks for taking the time to share.  Much appreciated.  But I think that we have already seen the Q4 2013 Report.

Hi vandersen
 
That is true...but that is because a lot of the current tests and they way they operate/the very different way that WSA  works mean that they will not give a true or represntative view of how effective WSA is.
 
As a result Webroot is currently working with some of the testing organisations to come up with a more representative test.  But we have not yet seen or heard very much about this.
 
Hope that helps explain?
 
Regards

The users should always remember that due to the uniqueness and innovation of its operation, WSA requires a different testing methodology, different than this one which is commonly used for testing an ordinary AV software.

Yes wsa is different than other av`s and in every way, and thanks for that   – but are you not just a little bit happy and pleased to se wsa in a test again, wich we have not seen for a long time now ?  sure I am !  :D
 
Sorry for misspelling your name Baldrick !

Oh, indeed vandersen...just hoping the new tests are agreed soon and WSA can sensibly pitted against the opposition and then show the doubters just what they are missing by going with other security apps...:D
 
BTW, no apology need re. the name...I do it myself sometimes...LOL
 
Regards
