The main advantage of Sophos (if you need it) is the 24/7 support for registered users (I mean: REGISTERED, and not "registered"...)
Avast! missed that test as well as a previous one because it's on access scanner could not be tuned according to the VirusBulletin specifications, so it was not tested at all! The on-demand scanner passed the test with ease.
