Many Microsoft Windows users who downloaded the recently released AntiSpyware program from Microsoft, or had it installed through an automatic Windows update, woke up to a surprise. Unintentionally, the heuristics of the software detected Internet Explorer as spyware, and removed the program from their systems.

I assumed it was fake before i got to the second post only because I had no issues on any of the pc's it auto updated. Of course it hasn't done anything of value yet, and I doubt it will since it's functionality is so limited... mostly just a reporting tool for MS I imagine.
