Nobody suggests an anti-virus software is perfect. However if Conficker is as widespread as reported, then every decent anti-virus software must have some solution or at least report the worm exists. Currently, you are the only one who even mentions detecting it. Others have said their anti-virus software works great, but never reported anything detected, stopped, or removed.
Currently posted is not a single useful benchmark from which to recommend any anti-virus software. Irrelevant is the methodology for one virus. More important are which anti-viruses see and do not see how many infections. Only then would a potential benchmark exist.
