New website of the week

Okay this one is nothing revolutionary either, but that it was worthwhile. Spyware is definitely a buzzword nowadays, you here or read a news story about it proably every day. Microsoft has come out with there own anti spyware program, its free for now, although they are expected to charge for out starting in August of this year (the current program will stop functioning on July 31st, leading to speculation they will charge for it at that time). I downloaded it and have started using it. Its nothing revolutionary, and I still use Spysweeper, Spybot, AdAware and Spyware Blaster, but I have noticed that no one program seems to catch everything so I figured it would be stupid not to use all of the tools available. The software is actually from Giant, a company that Microsoft recently acquired last month, mainly to give them a foothold in the spyware and security markets.

Here is the link if you want to try it, even though its officially still a beta program right now:
