Default Temp folder and TMP files created by Antispyware?


I am wondering why files are being created in my temp
foler under local settings by antispyware? This is where
alot of spyware gets put and at first it freaked me out
cause I could not delete it. When I shut down
antispyware processes you can delete these files. As
long as it is running it creates them. I wish they could
come up with one spyware software that would take care of
it all. I currently run 4 different spyware programs and
they all pick up different things. Thank god 3 were free
or I'd be broke just buying antispyware.
Why in the hell are the courts not going after these ^&*%
heads instead they go after people who download a song
from someone who has already made billions on that song.

Where do you want applications to keep temporary user-related files? In
Program Files or %windir%? That breaks the rule of allowing limited
users to run applications. This is the correct behavior.
