Microsoft's AntiSpyware may stop running without warning. An updated version is available.

I noticed tonight that the telltale bullseye icon in the System Tray which indicates MS AntiSpyware is active was curiously missing. No error messages, no notification... NOTHING. Starting it manually didn't work. Repairing/updating through the Control PANEL didn't work. In my case, it had to be COMPLETELY uninstalled and then downloaded and installed anew.

The updated version seems to humming along fine - for now. Get it here.


Microsoft Antispyware is not scheduled to die for another few weeks?
The question is, what turned yours off  A little something called Error 101. Microsoft won't tell me what that means.http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/releasenotes.mspxYep, I saw that. But they don't tell you exactly what causes the error. They just tell you to fix it.

What gets me is that I don't make a regular habit of checking my System Tray, so I have no idea how long I was without it.
