daria42 writes "Microsoft has denied its AntiSpyware application has
given adware-maker Claria special treatment. The denial has been
issued amid reports MS is looking to buy Claria, and is in response to
security researchers' reports stating AntiSpyware had downgraded the
threat level posed by Claria's adware products. The downgrade in
threat level merely represented an effort to be "fair and consistent
with how Windows AntiSpyware (Beta) handles similar software from
other vendors," according to a statement published by Microsoft." As
reader jfengel writes, though, "they neglected to mention what
software that might be, nor did they publish the analysis."
