Re: MS Downgrades Claria Detections said by boblandy2:raises hand... i do... and i will here, as this excerpt seems to imply that the setting can be changed to detect Claria? am i getting that right? It does and always has reported Claria. In March the recommended action was changed to ignore. The user can override the recommendation and change the action to remove. |

Recommended Actions
Microsoft AntiSpyware analyzes the threat and makes a recommendation on how you should handle the threat. You can, however, override the recommended action by selecting a new action from the menu of actions displayed within the results. In addition Microsoft AntiSpyware provides you with instructions for dealing with the threat. Below are the possible actions that can be performed on each threat detected.
Ignore. Selecting this action temporarily ignores this threat until the next time you run a spyware scan.
Quarantine. Selecting this action safely removes this threat from your computer and stores it in your spyware quarantine. Any threats in your spyware quarantine do not run on your computer and you can restore these items back to their original state at any time. (Note, some spyware threats cannot be quarantined, only deleted.)
Remove. Selecting this action permanently removes the threat from your computer.
Always Ignore. Selecting this action, much like Ignore, does not quarantine or remove this threat. In addition, the threat is added to your Ignored Threats list and is not marked as a threat again the next time you run a spyware scan. You can manage your Ignored Threats in the spyware settings. |

said by Just Bob: From the help file: Recommended Actions ..... But there is still no way to change the recommended action for Claria. It now defaults to "ignore" but if you would like to change the recommendation next time to "quarantine" you can't do that. The next time you encounter Claria it will still recommend "ignore." Yes, the user can over-ride the recommendation, but cannot change the default recommendation except to downgrade it to "always ignore." I think there should be settings for "always quarantine" and "always delete" just as there is a setting for "always ignore." |

It has been reported in the newsgroups for Microsoft antispyware that you will receive numerous warnings as the software attempts to install. I haven't personally verified that report, but I do believe it to be true.
