Definitely. I would wait for the next results before coming to a conclusion.
Yep. They all roll out new versions these days. And more ahead. It's Windows 7 that's spooking around behind the scenes. The all try to be prepared for the 22th of October.
Yeah, I am still sticking with ESET as of now.

Sorry. Sh*t happens.
