I don't know what you mean when you say "downloading on a redirect" I'm
afraid.
When you say this is a clean rebuild: 1) you installed the OS to a clean
partition--did you then reinstall all available critical patches and service
packs? (i.e. are you on SP4?)
2) you've then installed Microsoft Antispyware. Have you, in fact, cleaned
anything off this machine using Microsoft Antispyware? I'm trying to be
sure that the effect involved relates to the simple installation, rather
than a side effect of some removal operation.
If what I think I hear--that you see this as a side effect of the simple
installation of the tool--is the case--what happens if you uninstall?
If you can clearly document the effect going away upon uninstallation, and
returning with re-installation, and can give a step-by-step test someone can
use to clearly demonstrate the effect you are seeing, that's just what beta
testing is all about, and it would be great to have that data.
