We installed and ran it on a few machines this morning, and preliminary
results show that it works quite well.

Subject: [MSUNAG] MSU Anti Spyware Tool beta
Just to make sure everybody knows about this, Microsoft released a beta
version of their MS Anti Spyware tool. It has three parts to it:
1. Spyware Scanner / Removal Tool - Removes existing spyware 2. Agent
- Stops Spyware from installing 3. System Configuration Function - See
what programs are running on your computer, and upon startup.
I found out about it here.

I used it on an associates computer and it removed 4 spyware that were
undetectable to spybot SD.
