Zdravo
Šta reći ja koristim nod već odavno. Ali kako stvari stoje izgleda da počinje
da popušta i da sve više tone na listama. E sad možda zavisi i ko pravi te
liste momenat ažuriranja i slično. ispod je tekst prvo na srpskom a potom na
engleskom još jedan od testova.
ESET NOD32 ima veliki broj odličnih tehničkih karakteristika koje pomažu u
borbi protiv rootkit-a ali ono što je njegov veliki problem jeste činjenica da
ne može nikako da se upoređuje sa ostalim antivirus aplikacijama kada je u
pitanju osnovni zadatak blokiranja malware-a. ESET NOD32 trenutno zauzima loše
deveto mesto na listi jedanaest samostalnih antivirus softvera. NOD32 lagano
zaostaje iza svakog drugog programa koji su obuhvaćeni nedavno izvršenim
testiranjem. Prilikom testiranja najbolje rezultate postigli su Norton
Anitvirus, McAfee Antivirus Plus i Kaspersky Anti-Virus, dok NOD32 nije uspeo
da blokira jednu od deset infekcija dok su ostale aplikacije uspešno to
odradile.
PC World - ESET NOD32 has some nice, techie-focused extras and it effectively
ferrets out rootkits, but it can't keep up with other antivirus apps when it
comes to the essential task of blocking malware. It came in ninth place out of
11 in our current ranking of stand-alone antivirus software.
NOD32 lagged behind every other program we tested when it came to detecting
known malware with signatures. Against AVTest.org's huge store of known
Trojans, spyware, and other malware, its block rate of 94.8 percent was decent,
but strong performance from the majority of the apps we tested has raised the
bar.
The Slovakian-based program also fared poorly in adware detection tests. Only
Trend Micro Antivirus + Antispyware did worse than Nod32's 88.7 percent
detection rate in the category of annoying, but generally not harmful, software.
NOD32 performed better in heuristic tests designed to measure how well security
programs can detect newer malware threats. With two-week old databases, ESET's
program detected 63.6 percent of newer malware, earning a middle-of-the-road
sixth place. But when it came to behavioral detection tests, which measure how
well a security app can identify bad stuff based solely on how it acts on a PC,
NOD32 put up some warnings but ultimately didn't block any of the brand-new
test samples.
The malware hunter was able to identify and block all ten rootkits, which are a
type of malware used to hide other threats on a PC. But three other
apps--Norton Antivirus, McAfee Antivirus Plus and Kaspersky Anti-Virus--were
able to match that performance. For other types of malware infections, NOD32
failed to disable one out of 10 test infections. Again, not terrible, but most
of the apps neutered all the test infections.
NOD32 does include some nice extras, such as a new ability to scan HTTPS
traffic for threats before they reach your hard drive, and a SysInspector tool
that evaluates running programs, Registry entries, files, and other elements of
your system for potential risk. SysInspector is meant for techies, but it can
provide a wealth of information about what's going on in the depths of your PC
(ESET also offers the tool as a free download).
The program's user interface is generally smooth, but it has some definite
annoyances. NOD32 splits settings and tasks between a standard mode and
advanced mode, and hides some important elements like the quarantine function
and scan scheduler behind the advanced mode. Also, if the program finds any
threats during a scan you schedule or run yourself, it won't tell you up front
what it found. To see anything more than the number of discovered items, like
the file's name and location, you'll need to dig into the quarantine or scan
log.
Finally, unlike most stand-alone security programs, ESET says its application
will conflict with firewall software available from Webroot and ZoneAlarm,
unless you turn off HTTP filtering.
NOD32 didn't fall down on the job, but it also failed to excel in any of our
tests. If you're going to shell out for antivirus software, you can do better
with your money.
