"Many Microsoft Windows users who downloaded the recently released AntiSpyware program from Microsoft, or had it installed through an automatic Windows update, woke up to a surprise. Unintentionally, the heuristics of the software detected Internet Explorer as spyware, and removed the program from their systems."

IE = JUNK!

It is like the eternal battle between Good (Firefox/Netscape 7) and Evil (Internet Exploited).

Dance with the devil and that is what you get.

Yah, funny how MS's spyware tool is made to stop other spyware, but their own of course. (Nice sniffing tool Billy Boy you bastard.)

Save your self a great deal of frustration and switch to Mo's Firefox or Netscape 7.#

Make matters worse, they want to charge for patches.

When FireFox stops loading pages like I have a 500 MHZ Pentium II with 64 MB of RAM and a 56K dial-up connection maybe I'll switch.
