Beta Release Expiring Soon - Beta 2 Due Soon?

[Griz]

Hey, I've been using MS AntiSpyware Beta 1 for months
now, I've been installing it on EVERY computer that my
friends, family, etc have me fix, re-load, etc.

Noticed tonight that Beta 1 only has 55 days left,
Expires July 31.

Anyone heard if a Beta 2 is due to be released soon, or
if the final version is nearing completion?

Great software package BTW, even if you did buy it from
Giant.

Just a few post below is info interesting for you (you should first search
and read, then write ):

Steve Dodson from Microsoft has written:

"I would say that the expiration issue will be resolved fairly soon as we
will push forward the timebomb. We are in the final test pass on the next
release and as soon as we have finished the testing, it will be broadly
announced. The next version should put a dent in reducing the following
major issues:

1) July 31 Timebomb
2) LSP breaking.
3) Flying toasts when start bar is docked on the side.

I am real excited that these items will be fixed soon so we can focus on
finalizing beta 2."
