Beta fails to locate spyware

I have noticed on more than one occasion the beta does not
catch spyware that others do. I have a screen shot that
documents this. If someone from Microsoft would like to
contact me I can provide you log files etc so you can
attempts an effort to determine if it s confign issue or
absent definitions in the scan engine. Please email me

Current beta builds of Microsoft Antispyware do not scan for cookies.

Check your logs and see whether the items detected are cookies or data
miners--if so, this is to be expected.

Otherwise, submitting a Tools, suspected spyware report and delineating the
items found, or attaching your documentation (not sure if that's
possible??)--would be a good way to get this information in.
