Do you guys find some bugs in this program? In the system explorers menu, when it displays the list of whatever your looking at (such as running processes), the blue highlight of whatever it is your clicked on gradually doesn't line up with whatever it is you clicked on. Also, there's a tab on the lower right that says "learn more about" whatever it is your highlighted on, but when you click it, it just displays a blank screen. I dunno if I got a buggy download or what. Does your alls do this?

GUI problems are probably more of a skinning problem within the program that won't effect anything or shouldn't. Empty screens when you click for descriptions could be because the program is still in beta phase and transition from Giant AntiSpyware. However it never hurts to report problems you're having.
The problems I've had are:
* Slow system Shutdown, Restart, LogOff if the Realtime Protection is running, it doesn't happen all the time however it does happen frequently enough to be annoying. However I'll take that annoyance versus no realtime protection.
* Blank GUI when switching from MSAS to another program while MSAS is updating. It will stay blank and not redraw the program until the updating is complete which on a dial-up modem can take some 3 minutes.
* As reported by Ultimate Predator in a post having MSAS Realtime Protection running can block some installations, I didn't think it was possible until I tried to install something earlier today and it's a good thing Ultimate Predator posted that info otherwise I would have thought the installer was broken.
* Don't load the main GUI of MSAS and Ewido at the same time. Note: I just said load I didn't say anything about scanning. Doing it does something to Ewido that makes the screen flash rapidly.

PeerGuardian2 with HTTP blocked won't let a lot of applications update. MSAS is one of them.
Btw, it's not a bug. Seems there's an issue with their download domain.
Spynet.com redirects to MSAS website.
When trying to go to:

I get a timeout error.
