I allowed the latest installation of Microsoft
AntiSpyware Beta. Now, it ignores my instructions when
it generates a message, such as "Allow Always" or "Permit
Once". It keeps coming up with the same blasted messages
as though it doesn't record my instructions, even when I
manually create a rule. I get hit with the warnings
every time a program wants to access the net. Microsoft,
please fix this!!!!! Else I will have to turn the dumb
thing off.
 
Are you trying to run the application under a limited-
user account?

If so, this is what's causing the problem.

The current release of MSAS DOES NOT support limited-user
accounts, AND only ONE administrator account, the one
that installed the application.

This will likely change once Beta 2 is released, likely
around the end of the year.

Microsoft AntiSpyware does not have messages with options such as "Allow
Always" or "Permit Once". I think you are confusing Microsoft AntiSpyware
with your firewall.
 
Good observation Robin.
