Broken Windows

Microsoft has replaced its "Beta 1" Microsoft Anti-Spyware software package with a "Beta 2" Windows Defender software package, available here. It's worth a download -- just know you'll need to shut down your Web browser before installing it. (I also shut-down my Anti-Spyware.)
The new Windows Defender found several things on Mrs. Sheeple's computer that the other one had not found. From the FAQ:
Windows Defender (Beta 2), subsequent beta versions, and the final release version will each be available at no additional charge for currently licensed Windows customers. You will be required to verify that you are using genuine Windows through a quick and easy online process called validation.
Good news. It only works on modern Windows systems (XP or 2000) that you actually paid for.
