The xp-AntiSpy is a little utility that lets you disable some built-in update and authentication 'features' in WindowsXP.
For example, there's a service running in the background which is
called 'Automatic Updates'. I don't know what this service transfers
from my machine to other machines on the internet, especially the MS
ones. So I play it safe and disable such functions. If you like, you
can even disable these functions manually, by going through the System
and checking or unchecking some checkboxes. This will take you
approximately half an hour. But why wast time when a little neat
utility can do the same in 1 minute?
This utility was successfully tested by lots of users, and was found to
disable all the known 'Suspicious' Functions in WindowsXP. It's
customiseable, but comes up with the Default settings, which are
recommended.
Changes in Version 3.96-5:
"In the
last time, many mails reached me asking about the xp-AntiSpy and its
compatibility to Windows Vista. I do not have the time to answer them
all, that's why i post a little update in here.
Since Vista keeps compatible to xp i do not have to rewrite the xp-AntiSpy, but there are indeed some changes.
At the weekend i had the chance to test the xp-AntiSpy on Vista. I also
had the time to apply some changes, so the xp-AntiSpy would run also
correctly on Vista.
Please gimme a short feedback to [ beta {at} xp-antispy {dot} org >if something looks wrong to you.
Greetings, -chris-"
