Secunia teste 12 Security Suites
See the full details in the blog and in the pdf document linked from it; http://secunia.com/blog/29/

Obviously this is a very specifically focussed test which, it could be claimed, was set up to produce failures because the computers used were deliberately lacking certain patches.

Having said that, even the best performer didn't do too well against the various exploits that were used. I don't use the 'suites' or the stand alone AV of any of the companies tested, nor do I use IE, so I am taking a relaxed view, at the moment!
