SuperAntiSpyWare used to be great a long time ago, was a must run on infected computers. On nowadays is barely alive, I think they threw the towel long ago. MBAM is far superior at reverting registry modifications done by malware, and removing active malware from computer. There are so many better options outhere that will make you forget about SUPERAntiSpyware.

@donetao : In my observation view since these two scanners that contains realtime protection have same approach of not being a full blown Antivirus therefore it may sound overkill but none may reported any conflicts + since majority MBAM Premium is used to their alongside current security product.
Hi friend! I'm a little confused! Are you saying that it shouldn't cause conflicts if run in real time with MBAM??

Can I run the SAS Pro version in real time with MBAM Pro or will there be a conflict??
Personally, I think you shouldn't bother with SAS pro. If you want something to run with your antivirus then MBAM pro should be more useful than SAS pro.

Hi! I didn't know that MBAM revered the registry modifications done by malware. Maybe SAS will come back. I hear they have a new owner!!

They will overlap, nobody can guarantee no conflicts "under the hood" but basicly you should be fine.
Hi! It's hard for me to keep up and answer every reply. Thanks for your reply. I might give it a shot and see what happens.
I'm very satisfied with my MBAM Pro;)

Hi @Moose I'm now running MBAM Pro and SAS Pro in real time. I will post back if there are any problems.
I installed over the top of the free version. SAS removed the free version and installed the Pro with no problems.
SAS is now running in my tray. Thread has been moved to the Security Software Zone!
Thanks!

I think its better to exclude the folders of each other under each product.

Hi would you please explain. I have never done that before.
Thanks!
Under malware exclusions, add SAS program files directory. Similarly, under SAS exclusions, add MBAM program files directory. This way, there wont be any conflict among the products.

The thing is I wouldn't bother having SAS as a real time protection since it's detection rate is quite low, it works on signatures so you'll get infected most of the time and may have a chance of being clean after the signature is downloaded by the update feature. SAS could be good being run as an on demand scan, but even so i wouldn't bother using it since as we said here there are many better options.
