seriosuly, everytime i install spyware program, it stuffs up a window setting, couple years ago, i isntalled ad-aware, ran a scan, thats all, didn't tweak/play any settings, and wen i restatrted, it stuffed up all windows settings, such as remove my whole start menu. yesterday, i installed trend micro's anti spyware, so good looking n simple, ran a scan, found about 80 suspects, remoed them all...great!!!!!! restaretd computers, everything was perfect, but i cannot sign into msn messenger, uninstalled msn, reinstalled, msn still not working, luckily i am reforamtting desktop in a few days when i am gettin uncapped!

I believe you play but just never had those issues.

On the Windows Defender I agree, it never picked up anything when all 3 of the others would, Spybot, Adaware and Spyware Doctor. So I give it thumbs down.
