I am sorry to hear that you perceive some problems with our 
product. We take pride in being the most accurate product 
with least amount of false positives in the industry. This 
has been proven in many bake-offs by customers and 
independent journalists.

Hate to take this a little off topic, but do you have any facts
that can support or back up these claims? Any data produced by
anyone competent that speaks to your "false positives" and also
your "false negatives"?


(S)he said that they had the least amount of false positives. If
everyone else had 100000 FPs, while they had 99999 FPs, that is the
least number of FPs too. That doesn't mean that the product is useful in
any way.
