Disable spyware functionality within Windows using XP-AntiSpy

medium-5.gifWhilst we are connected to the Internet, our computers are constantly exchanging information. Some of the data that is shared will be with software suppliers and may be used to exchange information regarding your Windows operating system. Windows ships with a background service that examines your system and checks it against a Microsoft database. This database enables you to receive regular updates, automatically. Snag is, how do you know what information is being transferred regarding your system contents and although it may be nothing sinister, but everyone has a right to be wary about sharing information of any kind.

XP-AntiSpy 3.97-9 enables users to disable some of the built-in update and authentication features within the Windows operating system. You can turn off anything that requires you to share information (personal or regarding your system), over the Internet. To turn off these features, simply click off the supplied checkbox and quit the application.
