    Just been reading about how hackers are deliberately having a go at microsofts anti spy app on the basis off why should we have to pay for something that protects us from windows vulnerabilities to start with and that they have found malware that gets through unstopped, just thought I would mention that.

    This is interesting :

    If you download Microsoft AntiSpyware, note in the license agreement that the beta will expire on July 31, 2005, "or until the date we release a commercial version of the software, whichever date is first". Thus, you should regularly check for updates when new betas or the official version 1 of the software is released.

    Sorry for not replying sooner but last night the board was down while it was installing summat. btw it looks more like we'll have to pay for the updates rather than the software.
