Hi,
anyone using Windows Anti Spyware.
Well after using 3 paid for programs & all of them detecting different sorts of Spyware on my machine, I decided to give Windows AntiSpyware a try. Its free (at this stage).
As old Billy boy says "you can always trust stuff from MS". Right.?
Well Windows doesnt pick up any of the stuff that the others do, so this leads me to 2 conclusions.
1. Windows Anti Spyware aint worthe a cracker
OR
The other 3 (SpyBot,XoftSpy & NoAdware) are just creating their own spyware just to fool me into thinking they are doing their job.
What do others reckon??
cheers

I use Windows Anti Spy and occationally it does detect and remove things. I also use Yahoo Anti spy. My computer seems to work very well so I guess I'll continue to use them.

I tried MS Anti Spyware and it was decent but I stick with Spython and Spybot, they always do the trick. I f I were you, stick with the pay programs ;)

M$ AntiSpyware is very good, ewido is better and Spybot is worse that AntiSpyware, IMHO.

microsoft anti spyware is good and worth using it will help you, it found some spyware progarms that ad aware and Spybot didnt, i think ewido is the best though but ive only ben using it a while.

I personally use Microsoft Antispyware on all of my computers, and it does an excellent job at keeping my computers safe.
Another one that is popular is adawareSE, this also one my favorites.
