Emsisoft managed to pass another test with no problems.....Great sign.
SAS .... on the other hand, 4 FAILS. :lolz:
Is someone using SAS anymore?

Lol, well good to hear about Emsisoft not failing :p

I dropped SAS like 5-6 months ago and switched to Hitman Pro with Mbam.

I rarely saw EAM failed to these test. SAS was removed from my co;puter some couples of months ago.

Yes always a good sign, Long as I keep seeing positive performance in Emsisoft and good reports in tests such as this I will continue to use it.

Nope, I'm also considering taking the SAS scanning part out of my MG videos,
But what I've shown myself is at times, SAS will detect a threat MBAM doesn't so it makes me want to keep it in just incase.

I've removed SAS from my toolkit months ago, maybe v.5 would be better.....
BTW did you guys notice that MRG has tested Zemana Anti-Malware (which is basically Hitman Pro)and not the real deal Hitman Pro........ wonder why :shy:
Also from all the free security products Avira,Avast,MSE and AVG, only the most used free AV, MSE ,manage to fail....

Yes noticed it, probably it was request to take a part of a test using Zemana Anti Malware instead of real Hitman Pro. So not surprise since if does well using the Hitman Pro engine used.
