firewall sp2

Anyone figure out why the sp2 firewall is disabled after
installing spyware software? Not a big deal to me since I
am behind a router, however, may be issue for those who
are not.

There are known spyware programs that install layered
service providers (LSPs) on client computers to gather user
data. When Windows AntiSpyware (Beta) removes spyware
programs, it also removes the spyware-based LSPs. However,
Windows AntiSpyware (Beta) does not restore any LSPs after
it removes the spyware.
