Superantispy OR Not So Superantispyware?

Been using free superantispyware for some time now, I like the fact it stated it could remove vundo %26 smitfraud.



I've been disappointed again %26 again; this program does not do as claimed.



The other day I had some spyware on my PC, I updated superantispyware %26 did a full scan %26 it found nothing.



I then went to this link:

From here I click the link for Mailwarebytes Anti-Mailware, updated it done a full scan %26 found nothing.



I then downloaded RogueRemover Free 1.24

This found the problem.



Hence my question -



Superantispy OR Not So Superantispyware



Superantispy OR Not So Superantispyware?ktm



To be fair, I don't think any anti-spyware programs can deal with the current malware threat. Malware is becoming more sophisticated and reputable anti-spyware programs are finding it difficult to keep up with the threats. Prevx admitted last year that they are struggling, and I don't think it's just SUPERAntiSpyware, it's all of them are struggling.



But look at it another way, the Egyptians, managed to build statutes and buildings, that still to this day, enthralled the world with their achievements, and they did it without pulleys. The tools we have right now are not good enough but we can still make good use of them to combat, and, as time will go on, better programs will emerged.
