Microsoft Acquires Anti-Spyware Leader GIANT Company

Link: It's about stinking time!

"Spyware is a serious and growing problem for PC users, and customers have made it clear that they want Microsoft to deliver effective solutions to protect against the threat."

Seriously, I see this as the last great scurge now that spam is avoidable. And for MS to bake it in... excellent (and way overdue).

Meanwhile, if your computer has strange behavior, slowness, or unwanted popups, search engine hijacking and the like - sniff around Microsoft's spyware awareness site and get some help.
