anyone tried this, its the new replacment for giant antispyware.

sounds exactly the same as the first one, but looks like they had a fallout with the old company that was helping them, so they split off on there own, renamed it and re-released it.

I used the former Windows Antispyware, I used the new Windows Defender. Too many false positive, this is the side they have to work more.

It seems they removed all the advanced options from it! I hate Windows Defender! MS Anti-SPyware was much better!
