avast misses the same scripts that Comodo fails to detect.
Karspersky and AVG caught the damn thing and the other by Avira and McAfee.
Room for improvement on detection.

Using XP SP 2 :o

How does it work?
The 70 Threat Challenge is comprised of six Windows XP SP2 machines setup with six different antivirus products. Each machine starts off with a fully up to date set of definitions (where they apply) and a fully up to date antivirus product per the manufacturer. We've installed Microsoft Process Explorer and displayed it on each system so to be able to monitor any threat activity in real-time. Each operating system has the "Extreme Real-Time Malware Hunting" application we've designed internally to seek out websites actively infected with malware/trojans/viruses and rogue antivirus products
