The best antimalware, I'm proud I had been a MBAM beta tester:)

@ Jack: MalwareBytes' AntiMalware is not an antivirus, it's better than a common antispyware, you can use it for free with no real protecion.
Very good against Vundo and rogue security software

leofelix, in my belief an anti-virus program has spyware protection also, that is why am asking. Moreover as the author said, malware is a collective term for different virus threats including spyware?

Jack, I know that the most antivirus programmes have a built in antispyware which is not enough.

MalwareBytes' AntiMalware do not scan for traditional virus, you can use it for free.
If you have other questions, feel free to browse the MBAM forum

@ PowerBallArizona: you must became an honorary member first or ask the developers;)

Just try to infect a system and compare MBAM with Windows Defender and other antispyware or other antivirus with antispyware built in, you'll see the difference
