What independent AV testing company is your best recommendation
I know of AV-Comparatives but what other "Independent" companies are out there? I've tried Google but all I get are Jone Doe's top ten AV for PC protection type ads. Which ones are Verifiable, ones that don't have the CEO of a specific company on the board of the company doing the testing? Which ones don't take bribes of some sort to give better ratings.
I've tried Kasperskey (it was ranked best at the time) but it bogged my sys. down terribly and had other op issues as well. McAfee was offered free from my IP but had real bad issues freezing up requiring reinstalling problems and when I called C.Support all they could do for the longest time was try selling me extra crap and in their context of speech on the phone I could clearly tell I was not talking to a tech, just salesperson under terrible pressure to sell. (Poor guy, after I got through w/him I think he went and got drunk and cried a lot)
I'm using AVG Internet Security Trial w/most of the bells and whistles for now and it seems ok, I know a lot of people think it's a lame duck but it actually seems pretty good.
Any recommendations w/specifics of why would be appreciated.
