[Dieselman]

Your welcome Marc. I have 4 house calls to make tomorrow. I am going to test SAS 5 out while I am on them. What better way to test something but in the real world of malware infected pc's.

[Marc57]

All one word my friend. LOL.

Wasnt getting that technical. LOL. I was merely comparing quick scans. SAS 4 use to take about 10 minutes for a quick scan. Now version 5 is less then 3 minutes.

For some reason it takes 30 - 40 minutes to finish a quick scan on my computer where as MBAM takes about 7minutes.. (This is version 4.5 I'm talking about)..

After looking at this post I'm starting to get a bit worried that somethings wrong with my pc, since the specs are pretty good..

new SAS 5 GUI is absolutely ugly, doesn't change much it always was ... MBAM is too lol...  yeah I know it doesn't matter

It seems that the only thing SAS is better at than MBAM is finding cookies.
If you happen to not like cookies, then pick the cookie monster otherwise,
MBAM still does a better job of finding the stuff that's actually harming your system. IMHO.

Can someone tell if I should be worried about my hard drive, as it takes too long to finish a quick scan with SAS... 30-40mints where as others say that its done in less than 10minutes , most in less than 5..  I have about 200gb used on my hard drive..

sounds like you're doing a full scan, and we're doing a fast scan

Which version of SAS are you talking about? 4.50.1002 or PR 5.0.1076?

you're using the old 4.* version or the new 5.0pre ?

ps: quick scans take forever on 4.*

[DraKuL]

Older version.. 4.5 I think.. ( the latest stable one)

Are you using Ccleaner or another similar product to clean up the garbage before doing your scans
