Not finding all spyware?

I have noticed that the Anitspyware removal tool that
Micrsoft has released will only find a few of the Spyware
out there. One that seems to keep coming up is
DoubleClick. Is it just a oversight to allow them to
remain or has Doubleclick paid off Microsoft to allow
them to spread their Spam unchallanged?. It makes you
wonder, As Doubleclick has been around for along time.
You would think by now it would be a part of the Removal
Tool. It looks good and seems to do something but only
part way. Nice try.
 
If you are seeing a detection, but a failure at cleaning, or an apparent
situation where it comes back with a reboot, I'd say that cleaning has
failed.

Please restart in safe mode by pressing F8 before the initial Windows screen
comes up, and do full, deep scans until a scan comes through clean. (i.e.
probably two scans.)

This build of Microsoft Antispyware does not scan for cookies. They've
stated that this is "under consideration for inclusion in a future [beta]
version."
