Automatically Delete Items in Quarantine More Than __
Days Old.

This option automatically deletes each quarantined item
after the number of days you specify. This ensures that
quarantined items do not continue to grow and take up
space on your computer's hard drive.

spysweeper 4.0 has this features
 
What if you accidentally quarantined something like your
peer-to-peer software? Doing so would also quarantine
your downloaded music files.

This type of feature would actually delete any music
files there. If you want to get the files back, ggod
luck. They are no longer on the system. You might be
able to use a file restoration program, but chances are,
they are unretreivable!

Also, XP's System Restore feature would render this
option completely useless. If you restore the system to
a previous state before the removal, then the files will
be back in the quarantine folder. This will cause the
cycle of quarantining and deleting after x amount of days
to repeat itself over and over.
