Anti-Spyware Developers,
I have noticed a number of minor issues concerning Beta-1
which by my perspective need to be addressed before the
RC version:
The first is that the engine is not performing correctly,
and can be an issue with Server performance. Direct
comparison to other anti-spyware applications reveals
MSAS Beta-1 to be considerably slower.
The abort function sometimes fails to comply due to some
type of delay during scanning.
The interface can in some cases request an abort choice
when choosing any link other than Help.
The ability to define which directories, subdirectories,
and/or drives to be ignored should be saved, and the
engine should not continue to scan the identified
locations during the next scan.
Keylogger definitions are not, but should be included in
the spyware definition files. I have identified illegal
access of e-mail transmission from my system to an ADSL
location, and other anti-spyware applications have
identified a Kelogger as the cause. The most likely
culprit is Probot.
Another issue which concerns me is that MSAS B-1 does not
appear to be scanning the System Restore files
accurately. After a scan I can still locate StartPage in
the System Restore directory.
If there is any additional input you require, please feel
free to contact me.
Sincerely,
James Baltimore
