Incompatibility with enterprise administration tools
There is a known incompatibility with computers managed
in an enterprise. Windows AntiSpyware (Beta) can
potentially prompt the end user to make decisions to
allow or block administrative action that originate from
a central management tool. For example, users may be
prompted to allow or block a Systems Management Server
(SMS) script. To avoid potential issues with end users
blocking administrative actions, please turn off the
active protection feature of Windows AntiSpyware (Beta).

is this issue only for business using alot of computer?
or this issue is for home user too? does giant anti
spyware works on xp pro and media center 2004 or 2005
 
Hi Nate,

Most home users aren't running SMS unless they have a really big house. :)
That's for the large institutions running thousands of machines.

There is a note here about Media Center
http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/releasenotes.mspx
"Incompatibility with Windows Media Center Extender
There is a known incompatibility between Windows AntiSpyware (Beta) and
Windows Media Center Extender. If you install Windows AntiSpyware (Beta) on
a computer running Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, Windows Media
Center Extender will not be able to establish a remote connection."
