Super anti spyware or MalwareBytes?
I want to know which one is better for real-time protection.
SAS or MB?

Suggestion: Microsoft Security Essentials provides real-time protection for your PC that guards against viruses, spyware, and other malicious software. And it's free. Use Malwarebytes and SuperAntispyware free versions for periodic on-demand scans.
I already use MSE.
but im not sure if I should use MSE only... that's why I use SAS real time also.
So I just wanna ask if you had to choose between them what would you choose?
Hi, BDani.
Although the general recommendation is only one real-time program monitoring your computer to prevent conflicts, there are many people who do prefer a second monitor. If you have a licensed version of either SAS or MBAM, see if you have any ill-effects with the real-time protection activated. However, I would strongly advise you not to have both real-time in addition to MSE.
Another option, my favorite, is WinPatrol. (You can read about a few of the features at WinPatrol Features) WinPatrol is free for personal use and has a licensed version available as well.
BDani,
I use both MBAM and SAS along with MSE.
MSE on all the time and do a weekly scan.
The other two I do an update and then do a monthly scan just in case a bug slips by MSE. IMHO
(@THW -- yes, but not with real-time protection turned on for both MBAM & SAS. BDani wants to have real-time protection in addition to that provided by MSE.)
Use Emsisoft Anti malware. It runs alongwith your existing real time AV and its detection rates are higher than MBAM and SAS.
