Lot of info... I'll try to be brief. I was reviewing
anti-spyware for some time and loved CounterSpy (Sunbelt
Software). Did not realize (I am embarrassed to say)
that it was actually GIANT. I loved CounterSpy, but have
never been thrilled with SunBelt Software. In the
process of checking into Microsoft's solution all of the
pieces (or knowledge) fell together and I am thrilled
that I now have the best... and at no cost (for now).
However, I also use IHateSpam Server Edition (Exchange).
I heard murmurings that IHateSpam is really GIANT's Spam
software also. 1) Is it? Including the Exchange
version? 2) Did Microsoft software acquire the rights to
all GIANT software and will they be exploring a spam
solution using GIANT's code? For what it's worth...
let's get the GIANT Enterprise AntiSpyware version
indoctrinated in the Microsoft ways and available soon!
Thanks!

Hi Cliff,
There has been no word at all if an Enterprise Edition is planned. IMVHO,
it would rock!

Oh it's beyond planned... it's written. GIANT had it in
testing. Just don't know when Microsoft will get around
to bringing it to the surface again. Check
www.winsupersite.com for a snap shot of it.
