I have had Microsoft's antispyware installed for several
months and it has only found one item. However, in the
past other spyware has found dozens. I wonder why
 
Take a close look at the items found by the other products. In the main,
and perhaps entirely, you will probably find that they consist of cookies
and data miners (another kind of cookie.) Microsoft Antispyware doesn't
scan for these objects, in the builds distributed thus far.

Interestingly, as far as I've spotted in looking at Norton's beta
antispyware product, it doesn't do this either.
 
I think the pop up blocker is doing great, it is a
pleasure to stop those and make surfing enjoyable again.
As far as data mining if it did it with your concent I
would understand, but it does not, so in reality it is
spyware. I would like to see that found and give us the
choice to delete it.
