In lack of official bug report site:

Trying to submit Suspected Spyware report, the scan process halts with: "An
error occured submitting the scan results. Please...."
Viewing raw scan result file reveals:

Error in 'file:///C:/Programmer/Microsoft AntiSpyware/MSSSRT.xml'. Line 16,
position 102
<StartupFileRegistry ex="1"
path="HLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" val="3IAogN4h$v
From regedit, it appears the scanner chokes on value:
3IAogN4h$vùõs/,²ÆC:\Programmer\ISTsvc\istsvc.exeIn short: Spyware writers
beware: give a reg key a funny name, and the spyware tool chokes on it!!
 
Thanks for the reports--I agree--a tool that chokes on values able to be
placed in the registry needs improvement.
