	It is forbidden to provide the tables or results in full or in parts on other sites! Please just refer a link to www.av-comparatives.org
	Please read carefully also the test reports and the other documents on our website to understand how to interpret the results.
	* = read the report for details ( ! )
	** = new malware samples received during the 7th August and the 7th November that were new to all tested scanners
	This test shows the pure proactive ON-DEMAND detection capability that the scanners had 3 months ago (7th August 2006) with best possible detection settings.
	To determine how good a scanner is in detecting zoo-samples on-demand in general with updated signatures, have a look on our February and August tests.
	In order to have the highest available protection and proactive detection capabilities, keep your Anti-Virus always up-to-date.
	Detection failures in a retrospective test are not up for discussion. Products which cause many false alarms can only get the STANDARD award.
	Please rely on the reached certification levels and NOT on the percentages.
