It's important to note that 'beta' means that the software is pre-release
quality, and likely to be quite buggy. Use at your own risk.

 

[David Candy]

It is buggy. And it appears designed in. MS was ripped off by giant.

I used GIANT Antispyware before Microsoft purchased GIANT...never had any
problems. It's basically the same interface, only the name has changed.

same interface....?? thats strange it looks just like something MS would
make,....

MS does not really make a lot of stuff. Most of the products and services
you have come to know MS for are actually stuff somebody else developed, and
then MS bought and rebranded it. They started with QDOS, and I don't think
they will stop with Giant AntiSpyware.

 

[Mike Hall]

This is also true of companies like Lotus.. it is not just MS that do this..

It's got the XP colors (which I've turned off with classic mode),
but it doesn't "feel" like a Microsoft program. Maybe just a
personal thing.

 

[David Candy]

It feels like a MS consumer programer (encarta, Media Player).

I don't like it.

It doesn't feel like anything to me, all I feel is the mouse and
keyboard. Do you guys taste or smell it, too?

Didn't you ever sit up the back of the school bus feeling up programs?

When I was in school they didn't have computer programs in the back of
the bus or anywhere else, for that matter.

My school was one of the very few with a punch card computer (1974). I was what I think US call a preppie.

Mellow out, man. Hear the colors. It's, like, wild.

Put the crack pipe down and back away from the computer.
