finally some anti-virus from MS. but i think i'll wait awhile until it matures (by that time MS will probably charge money...) Non-beta MS products are already buggy enough 🙂

i ran it at default settings and it detected only 2 objects to delete. i then ran spybot and got 10 more. i play around with the ms antispyware settings again later.

ms didn't code this thing. it was bought from GIANT software company. give it a try. nice interface and features.

I think Giant software does better job than most of them(spy sweeper, spybopt). Before Giant I had to use Hijack this + Ad-aware but...Giant kinda do it all. I was so sad when I couldn't download anymore from giant website but I am glad its back. It was a matter of time before microsoft had to do somthing about it. Spyware is out of control today.

This is NOT a antivirus program, per mentions posted ^^^ by others, FYI.

This looks good. Even though I had turned off MS Messenger service weeks ago, it said it was running and let me turn it off again.
It also found 4 potential threats, even though I have Spysweeper running all the time, and I occasionally run Ad-Aware and Spybot Search and Destroy.
Now it's running all the time along with Spysweeper and WinPatrol.
The price is right.
