Hi everyone,

Recently, I've been getting questions about my recent update (particularly the part about removing SuperAntiSpyware). I would like share the reasons why I removed SAS.

I removed SuperAntiSpyware for the following main reasons:

1. SuperAntiSpyware has the lowest malware detection rates compared to Malwarebytes and HitmanPro.
2. The fact that HitmanPro uses 4 antivirus engines to detect malware.
3. Malwarebytes and HitmanPro provide adequate malware removal when used together.

SuperAntiSpyware is still an excellent product, and I will definitely keep an eye on it.

Inspite of usual poor detection SAS often detects some nasty malwares and unlike HMP and MBAM SAS portable do not need installation (I know HMP too has a scan-only option).

Geohac, people know how to read the threads in this forum, you know. You don't have to constantly remind everyone to visit your site. When they have the time, interested people will go there with or without you reminding them. I'm afraid your behavior is gradually shifting to advertising your website, which is not permitted here.

But promotion for malware removal guides is always good in this thread until now.

I just gave your site a look and realized that you helped me get rid of a buggie back in November of 2011. Now I can thank you. Thank you.

Nice site. Easy for idiots like myself to understand. I now have it bookmarked.
