Does Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition detect/remove spyware

I m trying out Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition and would to know if it renders MacScan redundant. Does the Sophos program detect/remove the same kind of files that MacScan does?

Thanks

Glancing at http://macscan.securemac.com/ there are some features of MacScan that are not within Sophos Anti-Virus.
If you install both products, then configure the anti-malware features of MacScan to not contend with Sophos.
