It may be a little trigger-happy, but for the price Norton 360 is a terrific deal. It did somewhat better in on-demand speed, which involves scheduled and manually run scans, although it is by no means the quickest. Norton 360 Standard review: Superb virus protection. It was second to last of all the 2009 suites we've tested for on-access scan speed, which refers to how quickly files are scanned when you access or open them. McAfee Internet Security Suite 2009 also failed in scan speed tests. McAfee's package was able to warn about some aspect of malware behaviour for only 2 out of 15 samples, or 13 percent of the time. On the other hand, McAfee Internet Security Suite 2009's performance in behavioural tests, which examine how well antivirus products can identify unknown malware based solely on how it acts, was dismal. Artemis probably contributed to McAfee Internet Security Suite 2009's decent showing. The new Artemis feature sends a signature of to-be-scanned files over the Internet to McAfee's servers, which can then compare the files against a much larger and more up-to-date signature database that the one that resides on your PC. These results mean that McAfee Internet Security Suite 2009 doesn't quite compare to the score of about 99 percent for top performers such as the Avira security suite and the Norton security suite, but is much better than the sorry 55.7 percent rate that the Trend Micro package produced with password stealers.
