I swear to god.. whoever wrote that article is an idiot.

For all the Microsoft beta testers out there, everyone knows that OneCare Beta Live hasn't integrated Spyware detection features yet.

Ummm... yes it has.

I tested it... it found something that MS Antispyware didn't find, ripped it out... of course, after it did this it would boot up, I'd log in, and then it would just sit there with a blank desktop for about 30 seconds, and then finally start loading up.

Reported the bug, it was, apparently, already submitte dby someone else.
