The LAST time I ever got infected was Chernobyl/CIH back around 98/99. But I've de-gunked infected computers that had current up-to-date versions of just about every AV program I've ever heard of. I don't remember ever having to disinfect one with ESET, though. So you may very well be right about it's being the best. Even so, I don't trust ANY of them 100%.

It took me 3 days to manually kill the first copy of one of those Fake AV/Security trojans I saw. When my son caught it, he must have been one of the very first victims. Absolutely NOTHING on Google when he asked me to fix his computer, but stuff started showing up later in the day. Nothing that helped kill it, but lots of complaints about it. No AV program could even detect it, let alone kill it. 3 alphabet soup processes all crosschecking each other - even in safe mode, started from odd places in the registry. And impossible to kill them all in task manager before the last one would start a couple more. I had to pull his HD and TRY to find them all, without a good way to search for alphabet soup. Miss one, stick his HD back in his machine, and they all came back. PITA!!!! About the time I finally killed it, the special-purpose tools started coming out from the AV companies.
