IF Microsoft dont tag the whole msgplus package as unsafe, then you could just find a new adware provider and evade the bad rating!
read the other thread where you posted exactly the same....
What you say doesn't make any sense at all!!!The job of an anti-adware/spyware program is EXACTLY to decect the adware/spyware, NOT the program which supposedly contains it.
Even as it is now, Patchou could add another sponsor! And if what you say is true, then MSAS would still not detect the new sponsor at all as it simply does NOT detect the spyware/adware ITSELF.
Its job is to decect the spyware/adware,
NOT to mark random programs and files which don't have anything to do with spyware/adware.
Virusscanners DO work like they should work, they decect the malicous peice of code itself, they do NOT decect the program which is infected. MSAS should work the same (just as any other anti-adware/spyware program)
