A friend has just sent me this link to download the beta of Microsoft Anti Spyware. Neowin was the first to break this a couple of day ago. The application offers real-time updates, scans/protection, and other advanced tools. One feature of the real-time protection is that it comes with 3 agents checking the Internet, Systems, and Applications, plus you can also restored hijacked IE settings. Worth a look if you are on the MS platform - i mean (i know this will bite me back in the ass) who is better to clean windows than Microsoft themselves - no flames please :o)You can find out more at MS at:http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx
