SearchSquire becomes ani-spyware football

I don't think MS Anti-Spyware's "always ignore" feature is reliable. MS-AS
removes or quarantines the registry entries that put SearchSquire in the
Restricted Zone; Spybot S&D re-instates them.

This morning I un-quarantined these, and got a pop-up asking if I'd like to
add the detection to my igore list. Yes! I'd love to do that! We'll see what
happens next.

I do think the program is going to have to get more savvy about the context
in which it finds "signature" hits. Aside from registry entries, I've read
reports of removing entire program trees (under "Program Files") because of
the top level folder name. It hasn't happened to me though.

Oh well, think Betas...Backups. Nice alliteration.

SearchSquire remains "ignored" here, Jim, even after updating/scanning with
Spybot.
