since the past 2-3 years it never detected ANY spyware nor other stuff tht has been loaded on the system or registry. Even though an app released by MS (who better understands their own os!?), yet such worthless results. How am to remove this from vista, rather then just turning it off!? .. its a complete waste of space!!

I have become a bit of an X64 freak. The fact that more drivers are available doesn't hurt. I've already tried this on another system, and it works well.

The only spyware available for Xp64, others work but don't know if they protect all aspects of a 64bit system.
