Default RE: have as many WD icons as you like ;)


I think it is a bug. In AntiSpyware beta 1, I always get lots of icons if I
logon to Windows 2003 via Remote Desktop and especially if other users are
logged onto the machine as well. I think it might be the same when you use
Windows XP with more than one logged on user. It seems like the AntiSpyware
application is made for single user Windows like Windows 9x and is not aware
of multi-user logons.

Very strange that they haven't fixed such an obvious bug in Defender beta 2.

MS:
Is this a known bug you are working on?
