Microsoft has come out with a AntiSpyware Beta! To download the beta go to the Microsoft home page scroll down untill you see popular downloads and click Microsoft AntiSpyware (Beta). NOTE: If you are using a Firefox browser to dowload it it has a little problem with Firefox but you can still download it, it just a couple of test type things. Once it is download you may choose some prefrences then run your first scan. On my first scan the results were amazing more than Ad-aware could ever do.

I use it now for about 2 mnts i guess ,its ok.i like the real time watching it does the best .
As for comparing it to AD-Aware ,i don't think thats fair as ad- aware is not a spyware prevention tool! just removal tool

Well, It had preformed much better when compared to Spybot and Adaware (we stoped using adaware because of the need to pay for the imuunize function).
Firefox: no, its not the end all solution, it has its own issues and in time it will be just as insecure as IE, when its hit Firefox 6, if it makes it that far. Oh, and AOL pays for it, incase you didn't know.

Microsoft & Windows: If you hate it so much, move to linux, or bsd, or anything else, stop complaning and move on.
Good starting places: Gentoo Novell SUSE Fedora Core Apple
