some fun with .NET

Microsoft AntiSpyware Beta1

Yesterday Microsoft released the first beta of  it's AntiSpyware software. In december Microsoft acquired Giant Company Software and used their engine to build this tool.

The AntiSpyware offers a system and a real time scan and some tools to get detailed information on running processes, downloaded ActiveX controls, IE and network settings. It also has SpyNet integration (probably because this is a part of Giant, so now a part of MS ;-)

The tool works very well for a beta, I did not encounter any problems using it. I will do some benchmarking with Adaware to see which is the better tool.
