I have just recently installed the latest version of MS
antispyware. I am writing this in hope that someone from
the developer team will read it. It would be nice to know
how to contact them. The bug is; that say if you want to
do a scan weekly, on say, Monday, Wednesday and Friday,
(which it allows you to select) say at 2:00 am, it only
does the first day which in this case would be monday, at
2:00 am. It will not scan on the other days that were
selected. It should be able to do this. The only solution
that may work, which I am going to try would be to set for
daily and select the days. I am going to try this and let
everyone know if this works. Do not check the daily box
but use the or and select the days that way. Set the main
selection to daily.

By the way, does anyone know how to contact the
development team? If so, it would be nice to know how to
contact them. Normally when an application is released in
Beta form there is usally a contact system in place that
will allow the test market to provide feedback to the
development team. What is Microsoft afraid of? I have been
a beta tester for many years and I find this most unusual
to try a beta version of a program that will be released
to the general public without a way to contact the
development team during the testing and analysis part of
the application life cycle.

Sincerely,
tomf
 
Its buggy, I wouldn't put my hopes on your testing plans, just wait until
beta 2.
 
Thats Ok try running you scan on Sunday at 10:00 am, when
you save the settings it will change to sunday at 112:00
am and run on Friday morning at 10:00 am.

I have this confirmed from several people and I was the
first one of the people I knew that found it out.
 
You are describing how it works on my machine, and, I presume, everyone who
has ever run this beta since early January. They are definitely aware of
this one, but thanks for the additional report.
