Microsoft Antispyware Beta

Works suprisingly well for a beta... I'm especially curious about the "peer-based exploit-detection data-sharing mechanism" (wording stolen from Scot's Review as I couldn't put it better myself) which aims to stop new exploits in their tracks. In this same review, MS's AntiSpyware utility compares favorably to AdAware and Spybot.

There's not much in the way of spyware to find on my dev machine at work, but I'll hafta run my own tests on my laptop later on and see for myself how we hold up.
