anything that gets popular for spyware detection, will be able to messed with with the spyware itself.

only solution would be disabling installs through browsers, which is up to microsoft now.

it was the stupidest idea to make it easy to have stuff installed directly with the browser without downloading and executing files. now these features are being abused or cracked to install spyware.
sure hope this will be addressed with the release of SP2. so far, im happy using Mozilla
