I guess what I don't get is why didn't you test other ids manufactures on the 
market also?

Why did you only test the vendors mentioned below?

Subject:        New IPS group test report
For those who are interested, we just published Edition 2 of our IPS group
test report.

For this edition we had methodologies for both content-based and rate-based
(attack mitigation) IPS - one product was tested against both. Five made it
into the final report:

Content-based:

Broadweb NetKeeper
Fortinet FortiGate
SecureSoft Apsolute IPS
Top Layer IPS 5500

Rate-based:
Top Layer IPS 5500
V-Secure V-100

The report can be viewed on-line (with no pesky registration forms!) at
www.nss.co.uk/ips

As with Edition 1, the entire report is up there barring only the benchmark
results tables.

Hope you find it useful
