Did you observe how many of the "missed" executed files were "monitored" by WSA?
If they were, they would have been "crippled" by WSA, making them not able to hurt the system.
I suggest you test this and report back, or else WSA was not tested at its full capabilities.

FYI! When WSA misses a virus, what happens?

Thank you for this review. To my surprise it appears as though Hitman Pro is better at detecting malware than Malwarebytes. Also, it is good to know about Webroot's web link blocking problems. I assume my add-ons like No Script, DoNotTrackMe from Abine, and Adblock Plus will help protect me against what Webroot misses.

Your welcome!:)

and just letting you know that i scanned with hitmanpro first, then clean the infected stuff that hitmanpro found and then i scan with malwarebytes.

So thats most likely why Malwarebytes did not find anything because hitmanpro already detected and cleaned the infected malware before i continued on with malwarebytes.
