I got a message today from the MS Spyware Beta that said:

ABCScrabble was a software bundler. It was in "camstudio.exe." I
believe camstudio was a free desktop screen recorder (or PC actions,
mouse moves, etc.). It has been on my computer for a long time.
Microsoft's Spyware Beta Detector has not said anything until now. I
can't find anything about an ABCScrabble. Should I worry about this?
 
It is in a category that monitors the actions done on your PC. This is a
spyware category! They may have just added this definition to the detection.
If you did install it, you can set it to be ignored.
 
But why would it say ABCScrabble? I've never even heard of ABCScrabble.

Maybe someone else who had access to your computer downloaded and installed
it. Have you looked Add/Remove Programs?
 
It reports that camstudio.exe has ABCScrabble bundled with it. No.
ABCScrabble it is not installed.
