The EQs

When speaking about Antivirus Products you have to keep in mind that a antivirus program is a living product. It's NEVER FINISHED. That's a big difference to a car for example. You don't have to update your car daily.

And because of that it is pointless to judge based on a few tests how well every program performs. You have to see it in a long term relation. Of course one of the major points is detection. The best GUI design doesn't help if it doesn't find any viruses.

The real important point is not how many samples Antivirus X doesn't find but how many important samples it didn't find. There are thousends of undetected malware files - detected by NOBODY except of course fortinet since that flags every wet poop anyway.

It is also pointless to let a scanner run over millions of samples if you don't know what it is and how much distributed they are. The only way to get accurate testresults is if you (the tester) knows exactly what's going on. You have to know which types of malware are still circulating, which types of backdoors are popular and so on. And that simply doesn't work out if you just scan what you've collected from somewhere.

There is no "Number 1 AV" and there will be none. NOD32 is a solid antivirus product and from a technical point of view more advanced than the Avira engine. NOD's emulation is top-notch for example. One reason why they are scoring good in heuristic tests without adding generic blacklisted packers.

You can bring down every antivirus program with stupid tests. It would take a few min to setup a "testset" where kaspersky scores 0.5% for example. Now based on this 500.000 ppl would spam the kaspersky forum how bad they are. And the story would repeat there again: Somebody would try to explain that the used samples are not important, crap or garbage. And they're right! Almost every av program provides enough protection for the average user. You'll never have 100% protection, just keep that in mind. The big thing is of course how fast do vendors react to important things, meaning updating virus definitions. And i think that's not a secret, but Kaspersky is there amongst the fastest.
