Manual scanning fluctuated wildly during our tests. Our first test detected only 60% of viruses and malware. But our later tests resulted in an 87% success rate.
These later testing rounds proved more successful due to the fact that CA finally updated their database and heuristic detection.
When first installed, CA doesn't automatically update its virus definitions. This tells us CA is relying heavily on their definitions list and less on their heuristic engine.
That CA antivirus works this way is a mixed blessing in our view: it means they'll most likely catch more known viruses more quickly than some competitors; however, they'll also be less likely to detect brand new threats.
