App Review Scanning 15 Malicious executables

It is advised to take all reviews with a grain of salt. In extreme cases some reviews use dramatization for entertainment purposes.

Nice review. It would be nice to hear you talk :)

They should replace windows defender with Essentials (only the spyware engine); it doesn't even provide basic security (the essentials would bring something) and it would make more sense for Microsoft to but their own AV in their OS.

I've never spoken in my videos. :lol: I did leave a suggest for music in the description.

See edit below.

Edit:
Thanks for the review. The kacakscript.exe file is not malware. Fyi.. Not everything on malcode is malware. There are a decent amount of f/p there. The wininit will be added next update though. Thanks!

I agree with this, it'd be nice if they had a better built-in defense and we could without worry of conflict add our own supplement. I like the little skull warnings of no sound....lol.

I'm also of the opinion that reviews should have speaking, regardless of how well you think you do it.

I haven't watched your review yet, so I don't know if this is the case, but I go crazy watching reviews where they are just clicking through menus and sometimes loop their mouse around some options, because you never know what they are trying to direct your attention to. Are they saying, these are the default settings! Or, I've made these changes to the default settings! Or even just, Look, here are some more settings!...

Yet MBAM and HMP are superior from detecting threats at least SAS detected a samples there where Windows Defender got nothing.

My personal choice is to disable System Defender. Once you add other signature based detection to your system and perform regular on-demand scans with malwarebytes, Hitman Pro, etc., System Defender isn't needed.

SAS 5 - 5/15
Windows Defender - 0/15

So their is a worst on-demand scanner than SAS :p..... Never used Windows Defender.....and most likely never will.Reason : Mbam and Hitman Pro.
Thank you for de video:D

Thanks for all the feedback.

Bogdan, System Defender :huh: You mean Windows Defender. :p

Personally, I won't give up on SAS just yet. It still more handy than other on-demand scanners.
