I went to the Microsoft website and tried to download Anti Spyware, and it asked me to install a tool. I don't want to install a tool, I find it invasive and it violates my sense of privacy, but i need to get ms anti spyware so I can compensate for the crappy product produced by Microsoft. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for your reply.
