Is AntiSpyware actually working?

[Mike Burwen]

I've been running AntiSpyware for three months or so
using its Real-time Protection Mode. It never seems to
find anything. Yet AdAware and Spybot find lots of
problems, and neither is an active real-time program.
How can I find out if AntiSpyware is actually working?

Because MSAS Beta 1 does not look for cookies and dataminers, as the two
other apps do - and this is what they actually find. Many times mentioned
here, on the newsgroups.
