So now let me guess, they have expanded the detections to Viruses too, right? :thumb:

xpsunny, it's no different than the Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Detection List (http://www.malwarebytes.org/malwarenet.php), and do follow deanmartin's advice - keep your AV handy!

Strewth, I just looked at the MBAM detection list. It only detects 1465 nasties!

Malwarebytes' has detected stuff and cleaned them up real good when SUPERAntiSpyware could not do the job, so I use both of them along with an AV.

No single product will EVER be able to catch everything on a given day. We always advise to run more than one anti-spyware/malware product AND an anti-virus product.

Okies....I wouldn't dump my current AV......:)

I would like to have both MBAM & SAS available on my PC.
For running constant, real-time protection though, which one would anyone recommend? Is one better than the other for that?

This is what your going to hear in general: SAS realtime is more stable then that of MBAM's, i say bogus - run wich one you like best cause they both dominate 8)
