93% here. Not sure what I got wrong.

I got 94%. Maybe, if I had selected no for social networking sites, it would have shown more. However, does this test help anywhere?

Read the questions. It's a frickin' waste of time.

waste of time. Probably another marketing idea

86% - not sure what some of the question's were aiming at though !!

Not able to understand this feature. Got 84% by saying novice ???

Got 78% but confuse about some questions at the end that they are really necessary to be answered.

Silly quiz. Some options may cause your computer to be vulnerable, but it's our choice. Waste of time.

I'm at 90%

I don't think this test is supposed to score your security ability as a tech - I think it's for average joe internet user to just give them some kind of a warm squishy feeling or something. :\ I'm sure questions I got "wrong" are: "are you sharing files", "do you use p2p" and other nonsense. I think the percentage at the end is completely arbitrary.

97% here, not sure how it came to that conclusion. (perhaps it doesn't like social networking sites...)

I didn't see one question that tested my Windows security knowledge. /shrug

I believe the test is for an 8 th grade kid. All the very best for those who take it..hope you pass

Posted by Cape Dave, 10-15-2009, 09:25 PM
Yeah, pretty much 100% worthless!

Posted by Sc00by22, 10-16-2009, 04:19 AM
89%

Posted by PeHe, 10-16-2009, 06:43 AM
What a ********. There should only be one question. Are you using Windows? if [ answer = "yes" ] then rating = 0% else rating = 100%

Posted by mattchariot, 10-16-2009, 06:55 AM
I got 90%

Posted by RSkeens, 10-16-2009, 10:51 AM
95% here, maybe it doesn't like the fact I have a merchant account or my browsing habits? Totally irrelevant questions.

Posted by SoftDux, 10-16-2009, 12:44 PM
I got 99% - probably cause I chose Firefox as default web browser?

Posted by forumtalk, 10-16-2009, 05:21 PM
shaa 87% that bad

Posted by Jacob Wall, 10-16-2009, 05:24 PM
Security Rating is Good (86%)!

Posted by Jacob Wall, 10-16-2009, 05:25 PM
Those are semi-relevant. Adult related websites? Gambling Websites? Lot's of those are infected w/ nasty stuff.

Posted by MGCJerry, 10-16-2009, 06:02 PM
89% Probably didnt like me saying I don't have automatic updates enabled and the fact that I *do* have a very unused FB, paypal, account etc. Not really informative.
