    why do programs like malwarebytes and hitmanpro, etc always find stuff that regular anti-viruses dont.
    i doesn't seem to matter what AV there is always some malware left over.
    i just dont understand why.
    anything besides the usual, not all av's detect the same things. o_O

    Not everything in life is perfect. Especially in malware detection, where tens of thousands are created each day.
