Browsers supported.

[Patrick Knight]

For give me if I'm repeating a point made by others, but I
was curious to know if AniSpyware (Beta) or even planned
releases(s) of same support browsers other than IE.
Anispayware pays special attention to some directories,
and from what I can see of the file-names flying by it
would appear that these are the caches etc for Microsoft
IE.

I asssume that a file search will find the file caches for
Netscape/Modzilla/Firefox etc, and Opera, but will
Antispyware know what to do with the cookie files /plugins
(and so on and so forth) found in the directory tree?

I have not even seen other spyware programs detect other
browsers.

Patrick,
If you wish to tweak the cleaning out of other browsers, take a peek at
XCleaner Free from Xblock.com

Malware infects the Operating System, Patrick, not the browser. MSAS is a
utility for supported Windows OSS.

Not quite true. It does effect the I.E. browser. I have seen no
software able to change the firefox browser without your permission.

I did not state that malware does not affect IE, Greg. IE is very much part
of the OS while Firefox is not.
