"Learn more about this ..."

[david gunnells]

Hello,
I grabbed MSAS Beta 1 (version 1.0.615, def version
5763), and decided to take a look at the System
Explorers.

Aside from it not recognizing the Microsof Windows Update
Control Engine (Installed version: 5,4,3790,14; Download
location:
http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/CAB/x86/unicode/iuct
l.CAB?37957.4749768519), which I thought was strange
(even though it is the older Aug 2003 version), clicking
on "Learn more about this ActiveX" for items MSAS did
recognize brought up a window titled "Microsof
AntiSpyware More Information" but the window had a big,
blank white page. No info.

It's the same for all the categories under System
Explorers.

Is this a problem with my install, or a general problem
with MSAS? Or is this functionality not available until a
later date?

Also, it would be nice if the UI marked the items that
have already been manually sent "to SpyNet for
analysis..." so I don't send duplicates.

Thanks for any help!
Sincerely,
David Gunnells

Hi

I think "duplicates" (also a lot of them) are good beacuse all spyware
reports are probably analyzed (must be) with a computer as first step.

A lot of problems and reports about the same challenge, MSAS team
directly fixs it.

Example:

Top 10 challengies this week etc.

2. Active X controls - 9870 hits
