Does anyone know if Microsoft's Anti-Spyware will
incorporate with Group Policy in Domain environments?
The problem I have right now is that when this is
installed it gives you the choice of allowing something
to install or blocking it. It would be great if you could
use Group Policy to configure it to not allow any type of
spyware and the users would not have the option of
allowing or blocking.
 
Hi Jeff,
As was posted elsewhere, one shouldn't run this on a production machine. It
is neither designed nor intended at this time for an Enterprise deployment,
or for deployment in an Enterprise.

Additional info on what may happen in an Enterprise situation can be found
here:

FWIW, yeah I can kill the scripts at logon. Drives the NetAdmin nuts when I
do it. :)

There will be an Enterprise version coming at some point, but no timetable
or details have been released as of yet.

An Enterprise Edition is in the works with that type of functionality but
will come at a cost.
 
Thanks for the replies.

I have been testing this out on a few computers in our
domain and it is the best product that I have seen that
is out there. I hope that this will become available soon
to the enterprise because spyware is such a time
consuming thing these days. It almost always seems that
you will would be better off reinstalling workstations
than trying to remove this junk but now this product
actually does a really clean job and doesn't modify
anything in the OS that would make it run poorly.
