What is Active Protection? Dozens of "checkpoints" that are monitored in real-time for attempts to install spyware. Think of the CounterSpy agents as your computer's personal bodyguards.

How Come Microsoft Updates Sunbelt's CounterSpy With Spyware Definitions?
Sunbelt is not "licensing the code from Microsoft". Microsoft acquired our anti-spyware business partner Giant Software. In short, Giant's original code was the start for both CounterSpy and Windows AntiSpyware but each has taken its own development path and Sunbelt and Microsoft each own their own code. Microsoft shares their spyware definitions with Sunbelt, but Sunbelt uses the threat information differently. Microsoft states on its website: "Anti-spyware solutions require definition updates-signatures of known spyware and other unwanted software-that are necessary to keep the solutions up-to-date. Because of a legal agreement between Sunbelt Software and Giant that preceded the Microsoft acquisition, Microsoft will provide spyware signature updates to Sunbelt through July 2007."

Unlike Microsoft, Sunbelt is TOUGH on Adware
In their Windows AntiSpyware beta, Microsoft does not detect and remove tracking cookies. Counterspy does. Worse, Microsoft has recently downgraded several adware products from "quarantine" to "ignore." A good example is the Claria GAIN, formerly knowns as Gator and one of the most hated adware companies around.
You might ask yourself: "Is Sunbelt also downgrading their adware threat definitions to "ignore" for Claria and other adware like Microsoft is doing?" The answer is NO, we ignore Microsoft's threat scoring values. We only use their threat data (like the file names, and locations where malware is found, etc.). We have not downgraded our Claria Gain recommendations and still have it set to be quarantined. If you run Microsoft AntiSpyware it detects the adware, but now presents "Recommended Action" of "Ignore" (!). You can draw your own conclusions...
