Can SAS Pro make up for the lack of AS in antivir free, ive heard that Antivir Premiums anti-spyware module protects against different threats than SAS and the two are complimentary. Is this true?

Also what kind of protection does the e-mail guard in premium provide for webmail? What kind of protection do the webguard and anti-driveby provide? Wouldnt the real-time guard protect you is something got on your pc anyway? TIA!

Absolutely.

None for webmail, but it does provide POP3 scanning while the messages are downloading from your server to your email client.

They scan the data while it is downloading to your pc. (see screenshots below)

Yes, but the goal is to detect it before it hits your hard drive.
