THis MS anti-spyware sames to be quite good
but.......................................

After running MS anti spyware I runned the Ad-aware 6.0
and Ad-aware found new "spys"
After ruinning MS anti spyware I runned Spybot "Search &
Destroy" and again other spys where found.

I wonder why there is not one single company able to make
an anti spy program that detects all "spys" now you have
to run at least 3 different programs to be reasonable sure
that yout pc is spy-proof.

Hi

MSAS don´t find cookies, maybe in Beta 2.

We have a big spyware advertisment industri who
does everything to Hijack any consumer, often IE.
This crap changes behavior and new spys/hijacks are coming
every day.

So my advice is that you probably needs MSAS and at least
Adaware for manual scans.

You have also a new Adaware version to download !

Ad-Aware SE Personal Edition 1.05

At this time in anti-spyware development running more than
one program is the norm.
 
Yeah, beta 1 stage, expect it to get better by beta 2. Recommendation has
always been to run in tandem with MSAS.
 
You have to remember, this is also beta 1, your feedback now on the things
its not finding will eventually be added as definitions by beta making the
product even better. So keep posting to newsgroups and you just might help
to make this end-to-end solution you have been looking for.
 
In the Beta1 version, the program doesn't go into the cookie jar, nor does
it chase data miner objects.
