Installed MS antispyware on my PC no prob. Installed it
on a friends PC that had spyware problems - great gor 2
days. Suddenly today whenevr I boot his PC up the
gcasdtserv.eve (ie one of the MS antispyware exs) runs
automatically and takes up 95% CPU usage which along with
other bits stops everything happening.

Had to stop the process then uninstall Dare not install
it on their PC again till i get some explanations

I've seen this myself, but not to get it to repeat.

Microsoft is interested in memory dumps from machines in this state.

My impression was that the program was doing something to do with loading a
particular set of definitions at the time.
