Just another example of them (MS) buying another company (Giant) to get another title to sell.

Two steps to avoiding spyware:
1. Don't use IE.
2. Don't install Kazaa.

3. Don't visit warez websites
Re: Microsoft AntiSpyware
This whole MS Anti-spyware thing is retarded. If Microsoft had not allowed the holes in their software for so long, PEBCAKs wouldn't have these problems. It's like Chevrolet putting out a new car without wheels because they 'forgot' and then offering the wheels as a 'new service'. The whole idea is stupid and simply unbelievable.
Microsoft is getting away with murder.

4. Fullproof. Disconnect your internet connection 
Is it true that MS will be charging for this service?

That's a great start but even then the odd bit will still find it's way in.
Btw, what happened to your "Get Firefox" button on the front page?

At least put a text link, it's good advertising for PunBB too as it appears on the Spead Firefox page everytime someone clicks it. But whatever it's up to you.
