M$ Anti Spyware and Msgplus

Is there any way I can stop this annoying "blah MS Anti Spyware has detected a threat trying to run" message referring to MsgPlus coming up EVERY time i log on?

I did install the MsgPlus without the Lop.com spyware, as I always do, but MS seem to ignore this.

In fact, when I click Ignore, and tick the "Remember this Action" box, the only thing it seems to ignore is that I want it to ignore the fact that I want to run this harmless, and useful, piece of software.

I've even uninstalled and reinstalled MSAS but it still gives the same blooming message.

I did some research tonight and it seems the plot thickens: if you get MSAS to remove the MsgPlus alleged "spyware" it removes the MsgPlus program, plus the uninstall entry, but leaves the Lop.com spyware installed if you've installed it, with no way of removing it...

Me thinks M$ are jealous because someone's built a rep on having features for MSN they hadn't thought of...

Anyone have any ideas though, this is getting pretty ****ing annoying now.

On www.msgplus.net they have a petition running although I no longer use msgplus due to keeping resourcces as low as possible, I still signed it worth doing.

Re: M$ Anti Spyware and Msgplus

Seem to have fixed it- uninstalled, deleted C:\Program Files\Microsoft AntiSpyware, then reinstalled.

Hmm, wonder why it did that?
