I have a problem with the Anti-Spyware program. I will
get a pop up stating that a particular spyware program
(midAddle) is trying to install. When I click to remove
it, my whole browser shuts down. Any work I've been doing
is lost, and I have to re-establish my connection. It's a
huge waste of my time. Has this been happening to anyone
else?

Hi


- Send a suspected spyware report to MS about this, menu
tools within MSAS.

Then follow this:

- Download/Install CCleaner, www.ccleaner.com

- Download/Install Lavasofts Adaware

http://www.download.com/Ad-Aware-SE-Personal-Edition/3000-8022-10319876.html?tag=list

* Also watch the video from Cnet about Adware within page
for best result.*

- Download Winsockfix, just a precaution if you loose your LSP.

- Restart in *safe mode*, press F8 during reboot

- Run CCcleaner and remove all temporarily junk.

- Run Adaware, fullscan

- Run MSAS, fullscan

- Restart

- Please report back if this works.
 
Also from Plun:
Hi

Third update within 4 days from Adaware.

Real bunch of "troublemakers" for MSAS.
