Installed a week ago. Running fine and caught one piece
of adware.

Problem....I cannot click any links in programs..in
Outlook I get " This action has been canceled due to
restrictions in effect on this computer. Plese contact
your system administrator."

It is a solo laptop. Dell, Inspiron 8100, windows xp pro,
updated. No links work in Outlook, excel, or any office
2003 suite for help, and no links work in other programs
to take me to the web for files.

Uninstalled and reinstalled would not work uninstalled
either. Now running latest build 613.

Thanks for any suggestions.

I think you are hitting a generic Outlook issue, not something related to
Microsoft Antispyware.

Try www.pandasoftware.com, you will throw away
MSantispyware. I did. You can run an active scan from the
web site. It is free to do so. I use Panda now * will not
go back to any of the others!

It was a bad idea, I think..
There are many different kind of threats to your system and active online
scanner will not shield your computer from them - active online scanner is
only a tool to detect malware in already infected system or to prove this
system not infected (what is not 100% sure!).
But this is not a prevention! And it is better to prevent, than to cure..

And more - having two or three (or sometimes even more) tools that detect
malware is even better than having only one. Why? Because they use
different detection methods, have different signatures of malware, detect
sometimes different types of malware - so the chance to eliminate this
unwanted "additions to the system" grows in such case.
Besides - search the Internet for the articles about the Ad-Aware and
delisting - you will know then why it's better to have few anti-malware
applications..
