Windows Defender Deficiencies

[Guest]

1) As much complained of here, the Restore Points that WD seems to generate
every 2 hours or so, without the User doing anything in particular, should be
ceased or at least made a configurable Option.

2) The History, a la Microsoft Anti-Spyware, of statistics of files/
registry entries / processes scanned and threats found should be reinstated.
They are useful in determining whether any unexpected changes have taken
place to system.

3) The same goes for most of the Tools in Microsoft Anti-Spyware that have
been removed from WD.

4) The upgrade to WD from Microsoft Anti-Spyware left much of Microsoft
Anti-Spyware in the Registry and the some of it in .\Program Files\Microsoft
Anti-Spyware.

You can get beta2 now. It installs and uninstalls cleanly, so I don't
hesitate to recommend it.
