It will be interesting to see if they send a cease and desist order to Microsoft, for MS Antispyware for finding and deleting this undwanted junk.

That's very true, just like murder is murder, speeding is speeding. I can't believe the lengths that some of these companies are going to for their crappy products. But then again it puts food on their plates, so they are going to fight everything tooth and nail.

If it had goslings but acts like a duck it's probably a goose with an identity disorder.

Steve: "Um...Bill, you just got a cease and desist letter?"
Bill: "From who?"

As Bill opens the letter, he notices that it is from iSearch. As he starts to read it, he starts to chuckle.

Bill: "HAHAHA! These small fries are suing us Steve. I can't believe it! Must have been one of those automated letters, because anybody.......HAHAHAHA......in their right mind wouldn't sue us over this. Send it up to our legal department."

Bill tosses the letter over to Steve.

Bill: "Send it up there so that our legal boys can have a good laugh. Those guys don't laugh enough."

It doesn't just put food on the table, for a lot of these poeple it is putting Lexux's in their million dollar homes. There is no way they are going to go back to the small apartment they had in college before they discovered money to be made off of suckers and computer neophytes.

With Microsoft producing what will likely become the standard Anti-Spyware removal tool, these Adware/Spyware/Malware companies need to REMOVE ALL SHARP OBJECTS FROM THEIR POCKETS, BEND OVER and GRAB THEIR ANKLES and KISS THEIR ASS GOODBYE. They're just wasting their money batting at windmills. Or as it says at the end of some cartoons, "That's All Folks!".

I am not convinced of that, simply because MS Antispy didnt find all malware on my as pc, as the others did. MS will just be another tool, not the end all of antispy.

Laugh nothing, judges have gavels for a reason! They should put it to good use on the defendant's pointed heads.

Just wait until the legal system gets a hold of things. At that point, it's all up for grabs - logic means nothing there. Legally, to quote a comedian, they could rule that 2 + 2 = chair!

If only Sam Kennison was still alive.
I can hear him now "Burn in hell, AAARRRRAAARRR, . . . . ".
Too bad SAM is gone because there is so much good material for him now.

You should remember Microsoft Anti-Spyware is a Beta and will be for at least another 5 months and Mr Gates has all the incentive in the world to make it either block directly and/or remove all Spyware/Adware from the machines, because if it doesn't Microsoft on the desktop could be in for major troubles. Plus, Mr Gates personal machines at home have never been hit by a virus/worm/trojan, but has been hit with spyware/adware. The need and incentive is there! Additionally, based upon Independent tests, Giant Anti-Spyware (Microsoft) was the best single product on the market, beating Spybot/Ad-Aware/Pest Patrol by sizable margins. And since I installed Microsoft Anti-Spyware on January 6th on my eight desktops, even though I continued to scan with all three scanners(Spybot/Ad-Aware/Microsoft), none of the scanners have found any malware. Of course, I used the built-in capability that already existed in IE to shutdown and block tracking cookies in December, so nothing has found tracking cookies either.

Additional Edit: What I was attempting to point out in the original post is that the Spyware/Adware people are finished. "That's All Folks!" Because they will never be able to reclassify their junk to be acceptable to Microsoft. They are wasting their time and money trying to reclassify with other websites or scanners. When Microsoft jumped into the fray, everything changed overnight. They just haven't woke up yet and realized that they are DEAD. These attempts to reclassify will not work on Microsoft and the Microsoft Anti-Spyware product will become the GOLD STANDARD in the next year.

So again, these Adware/Spyware/Malware companies need to REMOVE ALL SHARP OBJECTS FROM THEIR POCKETS, BEND OVER and GRAB THEIR ANKLES and KISS THEIR ASS GOODBYE, because they have hit the ultimate BRICK-WALL.

Microsoft's entry into the crapware hunt was a big mark, but I wouldn't write it up as "game over" yet. Plus, a Microsoft "Gold Standard"? Microsoft has some good products, but not everything they put a "Stamp of Approval" has been pure gold. Remember, this is the same company that let Windows ME escape from their beta testing labs not too far back.
