Although not about bugs, usability of a product should be
part of the testing process. This isn't really a support
issue for a newsgroup like this, but I couldn't find a link
where I can tell Microsoft what features I like and don't like.
So if you are reading Microsoft: When I first installed
this product, I wanted to check out all the settings and
ensure they were what I wanted, but I had usability issues
with this.
Some settings are on the Options/Settings menu. But other
settings are under the individual tools under the Tools
menu. So first of all, please be consistent.
Secondly it was very cumbersome having to repeatedly
navigate the menus, sometimes down 3 levels Having to go
down Tools/Spyware scan/Manage Spyware scan Schedule, then
Tools/Realtime Protection/Application Agent/View
Application Agent Checkpoints just to view and change two
of the settings is tedious.
While I would not like to see the menu navigation method
removed from this product, I would like to see a
supplementary method added that would make it easier to
view and change settings more directly. For example a
treeview that lets you easily switch between various
settings screens, would go a long way.
