Microsoft AntiSpyware has been running for a week, yet
when i ran Spybot to verify, it found 25 applications
running like Advertising.com, BFast, CoreMetrics..
Are these not spyware?
 
This is correct, this is a BETA version and the scanning
of cookies is not yet there.
Check the details of your spybot files and you will see
that all the items are tracking-cookies.

I did the same check this morning with the same result.
 
Hi Keward,
It's all about the cookies. This version, Beta1, doesn't peek in the cookie
jar.

Dont dely just on one program alone. Spybot and Ad-aware
may find things that this program will miss and vice versa.
