This is a complete list of the scanners used during the test, with their version number, producer, and code name, used to abbreviate the scanner in the table of final results. If some producer finds that we have tested a version of their scanner which is too old, they should feel free to send us an update. If some producer is upset that we have not tested their product, they should feel free to send us the product for testing, *if* it fulfils the set of basic conditions listed in the file TESTABLE.TXT. Please, note that some of the scanners tested for this release of the test results do *not* conform to the conditions mentioned above. Since testing such scanners is too difficult and time-consumming, those products will be discontinued in the future releases of the test results, if the respective producers of those scanners do not make them conform to the said conditions. Besides, as you can see from the final results, those products usually tend to be buggy, unreliable, and to have a relatively low detection rate.
