Our Spyware and Claria

Well, this is kind of funny to me: There have been some companies claiming that we flag them as spyware and that they actually are not. They all went through a defined and well-documented process and have been measured against defined and well-documented criteria. Now, we did this with Claria and based on some rumours, this company made it to the press. If you are interested in those processes and cirteria, there is a KB about it: https://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;892340 Our official response is here: https://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/claria_letter.mspx
