Spyware Doctor found to send more packets to internet...

I installed it just before MS Anti spy and started
tracking the program with a 3rd party firewall. it's way
too active for an anti spyware app. While uninstalling
the Spyware Doc it started hammer my router again with
all sorts of packets...

Please try and add this program to the list of malicious
apps.
 
At least one knowledgable person here has registered concern about Microsoft
Antispyware's Internet access. It looks to me as though it is very clearly
delineated and controllable by the user.

Have you tested this aspect of Microsoft Antispyware? If you turn off
Spynet interaction, does it access the Internet except under your control to
download updates?
 
Spyware Doctor is the offending program and he is asking someone to report
its background behavior.
 
I understand, and I'm going to leave that reporting process to somebody
else, I'm afraid.

I was hoping that since he was already set up to do the monitoring, we might
get a similar reading on Microsoft Antispyware--since the question has come
up in these groups, and will probably continue to come up given public
opinion.
