AntiSW takes control away from me.

I tell MS AntiSW not to allow MSN Messenger to run at
startup, and it pops a message at reboot saying it is
going to allow it anyway because MS has made the almighty
decision that it is spyware free. This should be my
decision not MS's decision, and it would be a non-starter
if it were to come down to paying for the software.
 
Disable Messenger, 4 things,
1 Messenger, tools, Options, uncheck 'start at windows start' and
2 uncheck 'run in background'
3 OE, Tools menu, Options, uncheck run Messenger at startup
4 OE,View menu,"customize toolbar",uncheck 'contacts bar'
 
Yes I know, but that is not really the point. If I want
to disable a program from running at startup in AntiSW I
should be able to do so without MS making decisions about
what I can or can not disable. If you are going to take
the decision out of the hands of the user then you might
as well not have that functionality available. I have had
AntiSW installed for about 2 days and found this, how
many other programs will it do this with? I mean really,
you can say "Oh well, you can disable it in other places,
but when I see that the software is re-enabling ANYTHING
that I specifically told it to disable, then it is not
doing what I want it to do, and as I stated previously,
it is not something that I would pay for.
