With my multi-layered setup, I would've achieved 100 on every category except usability.

It's very interesting to see some of the comments over at Wilders now too concerning the confusion and ambiguity surrounding AV tests. What's interesting about AV-Test.org is they publish theirs based on specific platforms and whatever you think about the results you can see there is quite a difference.

Take a look at BitDefender for instance, especially for "repair" between XP and W7. That said, there is quite a time difference between the two so are the Q3 results still relevant? It's a pity they can't release results for all three platforms simultaneously, but I bet there's a whole bunch of folks with one system who are choosing software based on results from something else which will perform very differently on theirs.
