Microsoft Antispyware is a very good product, and it has been highly
rated in most comparative reviews.

Do you have the Real-time protection options enabled in Microsoft
Antispyware? If so then it is probably keeping most if not all of the
bad stuff from ever getting onto your computer in the first place,
which would explain why it is finding nothing when it scans your
system.

Also check your version information in Microsoft Antispyware to ensure
that you have gotten the latest updates (Help - About......"). Your
version number should read 1.0.701, expiry date 7/31/2006, and
definition version 5783 or higher.

Good luck

Considering the history of this product
(http://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm), why do you think
they would stop producing false positives to get suckers to buy their
product? They want to separate you from your money, so they scare you with
false positives. Use something else.

It never finds anything here. That's because there's nothing for it to
find.
