Built into OS?

This should actually be built into the OS, there are way way to many idiot's out there that need that protection by default. Just have it so us advanced users have the option to turn the service off if we want to use our own spyware program.

It is the idiot running as administrator that needs the reality check. Try installing spyware as a user. Not a super user but a regular user. Yeah you can't.
