Among others, SUPERAntiSpyware found an infected file deep in my Windows system called IPV6Mons, a trojan downloader. None of my other programs had detected it.
The interesting part about IPV6Mons.dll is that a file of the same name is also used by Windows itself, just with a different content and in a different location. That is why the other programs hadnt picked it up. It is installed by the trojan BZub.
SUPERAntiSpyware comes with one neat extra feature, Safe Boot. Its a little utility that, for starting in Safe Mode, makes pressing the F8 key during booting unnecessary. You check if you want to reboot in normal mode, safe mode, safe mode with network, or safe mode directory service repair. Then you just click reboot, and it does exactly that. No lengthy navigation. After the reboot, you reset it to normal mode so that the next start-up will be in normal mode. I like it.
Or course, I will not get rid of my other anti-spyware programs. They all complement each other.
